Augustus John

This exhibition consists of 40 works chosen from Canadian collections and includes paintings, drawings and lithographs by the renowned British artist.  Rather than attempting to be a retrospective survey of the artist's work, the exhibition focuses on that work by the artist which is of special significance to Canadians. Chosen from works executed between the turn of the century and 1940, it includes portraits of Canadians in public life at that time as well as drawings of ordinary Canadian soldiers; products of John's years as an official Canadian war artist.
