The long history of the AGA – as with all public galleries and museums – is interconnected with the lives and histories of individuals who love and collect art. As part of the AGA’s 100^th anniversary celebrations, this exhibition brings together more than 75 works of art on loan from private art collections across Alberta. Featuring a selection of works as varied as the collecting visions as the people who have lent them, A Look Within provides a view into the wide range of approaches, passions and interests that drive practices of collecting.
