AGO Next is a dynamic membership program for art lovers under 40. AGO Next events are for AGO Next members only. Find out more about this membership program.


We’re diving deep into the work of American artist, Vija Celmins. Celmins is best known for her detailed paintings and drawings, meditations on natural phenomena including ocean waves, desert floors and night skies. Featuring over 120 works and spanning over five decades, Celmins’ work encourages us to look closely and to contemplate the space between reality and reproduction. 

For requests for Verbal Description, American Sign Language (ASL) interpretation and/or live captioning for online and onsite programming, please provide three weeks notice in advance of the event date. The AGO will make every effort to provide accommodation for requests made with less than three weeks notice. Please note that automated captioning is available for all online programs. For onsite visits, the AGO offers these supports for an accessible visit. Please contact us to make a request for these or other accessibility accommodations. Learn more about accessibility at the AGO.
