No More Group of Seven at the AGO.
DO write a letter if you care about the virtual elimination of
the works of the Group of Seven from the
Art Gallery of Ontario.
The works are to be shut away for four years, and then only a few
paintings will be displayed, sporadically. The Gallery believes
that Canadians pay too much attention to the works of the Group.
Read the columns of Joe Fiorito of the Toronto Star
-
www.thestar.com.
If you care, email / write Dennis Reid, chief
curator at the Art Gallery of Ontario, and Matthew
Teitelbaum, Director and CEO, at www.ago.net.
Click on the 'Transformation' link and then get the contact information.
( You will eventually receive a form letter which does not address
the issue, and two free passes to the AGO.)
The mailing address is:
Art Gallery of Ontario
