HEART OF THE HOUSE: ART AND THE WEST COAST MODERN HOUSE


This exhibition presents a selection of art and objects associated with mid-century modernism and the domestic interior in BC.  It celebrates the bold aesthetics of modern living that flourished in BC in the decades immediately following WWI.  The artists, designers and architects featured in this exhibition articulated a new style of living through their work, unique to the West Coast.  The modernist spaces they created relied upon a fusion of art and life; a way of thinking that placed art at the very heart of the concept of ‘home’.  The exhibition includes works made and collected by architects and owners of noteworthy modernist houses in BC. Together, these works speak to a spirit of optimism and a desire to re-invent the aesthetics of the home in
