Current and Upcoming Exhibitions

American Chronicles: The Art of Norman Rockwell • March 2-May 20, 2012

Canada’s first and only retrospective exhibition of the iconic work of Norman Rockwell is at the WAG!  One of the most popular North American artists of the past century, Rockwell (1894-1978) chronicled our changing society in the small details of ordinary people in everyday life, providing a personalized interpretation—albeit often an idealized one—of American identity.  This historic touring exhibition features over 40 major paintings, the complete set of 323 Saturday Evening Post tear-sheet covers, and a group of rarely seen preparatory works and artifacts.
