The Winnipeg Art Gallery and the National Gallery of Canada have just signed a three-year partnership.
Beginning in January 2013, the two institutions will present exhibitions in a dedicated space called The National Gallery of Canada at the Winnipeg Art Gallery. Visitors will be able to view masterpieces from the national collection — both Canadian and international.
The partnership coincides with this year’s centennial of the WAG.
Canadian artist Janet Cardiff’s famous sound sculpture, Forty-Part Motet, will open the exhibition space in January.
