West Vancouver Art Museum

To Oct 3 Jeff Wall: Inside. A selection of the artist’s work over the past 30 years, with emphasis on pictures made in the past decade and not previously seen in Vancouver. Wall has stated that he wanted to have the same artistic freedom as painters, poets or composers, the freedom to find what he calls “starting points“ anywhere. The often-large size of the works emphasizes the visual impact of composition, colour and form and the intimacy of seeming to share space with the subjects. The pictures invite contemplation and discussion, blending composition and artifice–the approach that Wall has elaborated over his almost five-decade long career. This exhibition is generously supported by Jennifer and John Webb.
