LandMark: A New Chapter Acquisition Project
The exhibition, LandMark, features new works by Alberta Indigenous artists: Brenda Draney, Tanya
Harnett and Terrance Houle. For each of these artists, the land and landscape of their home territory
in Alberta has provided inspiration for the creation of works that address time and ancestry, nature
and the environment, community and story-telling. Working in painting, photography and video,
the work of these three artists present the land, not as geography or vista, but as intimate and person
places that are marked by lived experience.
LandMark is the second in a series of exhibitions supported by a Canada Council for the Arts “New
Chapter” grant, that showcase new acquisitions to the AGA’s permanent collection of work by Indigenous,
Métis and Inuit artists.This is one of the 200 exceptional projects funded through the Canada
Council for the Arts’ New Chapter program.
