Expand

The Remai Modern is presenting what it calls the largest-ever exhibition of international modern and contemporary art in Saskatchewan. 

The show, The Sonnabend Collection, includes more than 100 pieces by 68 artists, including iconic works by Roy Lichtenstein, Andy Warhol and Jeff Koons. 

The collection was developed by influential art dealer Ileana Sonnabend (1914-2007), her husband Michael (1900-2001), and their adopted son Antonio Homem. The Sonnabends established an international presence through their galleries in Paris and New York.

The show, which opens Oct. 5 and runs until March 22, is the collection’s first exposure in Canada.
