WAG, National Gallery sign three-year partnership

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.
