Vancouver Art Gallery

I had the great experience of visiting the Vancouver Art Gallery in Vancouver, British Columbia Canada. Upon walking in the atmosphere was great. The staff was wonderful considering it was fairly early on new years day. They were willing to answer questions and give suggestions of what to defiantly see based on interests. The main point of interest to my visit was the visiting exhibition WACK! WACK! is a collection of feminist art during the feminist revolution primarily during the 60s and 70s. While there were also pieces from earlier and more contemporary as well. I really enjoyed the show and it offered quite a variety from painting to instillation and interactive art. 

The gallery also had a Jeff Wall show up as he is a Vancouver native, and also the photographer responsible for the light box display. There was also a show of landscape paintings along with probably my favorite exhibit of the day the Kai Althoff works on the top floor. Not knowing much about this German based artist I immediately fell in love with his work. There was such a range of sculpture, paintings --which his is mostly known for--along with his instillation and performing art works. I loved them all. He is defiantly an artist to keep an eye on and remember for years to come.
