Visible Storage Project

As a way to provide greater access to our permanent collection, the Art Gallery of Guelph is pleased to present our visible storage project.

Location Second floor of the AGG

Located on the gallery’s second floor, this initiative allows the safe display of works from our permanent collections and will support increased community access as well as curatorial and research opportunities.

On view from September 14 – December 17, 2023, Seeing the Land, Feeling the Sea presents landscapes by Canadian artist Takao Tanabe from the Art Gallery of Guelph’s permanent collection. The installation chronicles over 20 years of Tanabe’s practice in printmaking, encompassing processes including lithography, photogravure, woodblock printing, and etching.
