Theatrum Mundi: The 1997 Marion McCain Atlantic Art Exhibition

5 March – 19 April, 1998

Paintings, prints, sculpture, bookworks, video and mixed-media installations by twenty-five contemporary artists from all four Atlantic Provinces were selected for this biennial touring exhibition. Curator Susan Gibson Garvey uses the metaphor of a sixteenth-century “cabinet of wonder” to present a thought-provoking perspective on regional art production. Organized and circulated by the Beaverbrook Art Gallery, this exhibition is funded by the McCain Family in memory of the late Marion McCain.
