Exceptional access to Canadian art by the Group of Seven and First World artists!!
McMichael Canadian Art Collection的点评
点评:This was our second visit to the McMichael from our home 4 hours away. So it is a destination for us. As a premier art museum dedicated to Canadian art, focusing on the Group of Seven and Indigenous Art, we keep apprised of their new exhibitions and their events. On this occasion, we returned to see the newly opened Old Growth: Masterworks by the Group of Seven and their Contemporaries and attend the curator talk. Both the exhibition and the talk were exceptional. Well worth the long drive to and from Kleinburg. During our five hours at the museum, we also took in the Close to Home and Early Days: Indigenous Art at the McMichael exhibitions. The curators take care to present new ways of looking at the Group of Seven artists and their work. In fact, it was as if we were visiting for the first time. Same with the Indigenous art, especially the work of Norval Morrisseau and contemporaries. Highly recommend this museum. Go and spend all day there! Explore the grounds too with its sculptures and trails. And pay your respects to Mr and Mrs McMichael and six Group of 7 artists who are buried in a peaceful setting on the grounds.
翻译:这是我们第二次从离家四小时车程的家来到麦克迈克尔美术馆。所以,这里对我们来说是一个重要的目的地。作为加拿大首屈一指的艺术博物馆,麦克迈克尔美术馆致力于展示加拿大艺术,尤其关注七人画派和原住民艺术,我们一直关注着他们的新展览和活动。这次,我们再次来到这里,参观了新开幕的“古老森林:七人画派及其同时代艺术家的杰作展”,并聆听了策展人讲座。展览和讲座都非常精彩。往返克莱因堡的长途车程绝对值得。在美术馆的五个小时里,我们还参观了“近在咫尺”和“早期岁月:麦克迈克尔美术馆的原住民艺术展”。策展人用心呈现了欣赏七人画派艺术家及其作品的全新视角。事实上,我们感觉就像是第一次来一样。原住民艺术展也是如此,尤其是诺瓦尔·莫里索及其同时代艺术家的作品。强烈推荐这家美术馆。去那里待上一整天吧!还可以探索一下美术馆的庭院,那里有雕塑和步道。请向安葬于此地宁静环境中的麦克迈克尔夫妇和六位“七人画派”艺术家致以敬意。
