Woodland Art
September 2021 The AGA is proud to announce the Woodland Art exhibition from the permanent collection. The exhibition features artwork by Norval Morrisseau, Jackson Beardy, Eddy Cobiness, John Laford, Russel Noganosh and Stephen Snake. Woodland art is unmistakably recognizable through the bright colours, bold lines, heavy black outlines of forms and X-ray views of people, animals and spirits. Lines connecting people, animals and spirits emphasize the unity all around us. These works carry powerful meaning and messages. They are full of symbolism, spirituality, and translate oral stories into visual stories.
