Gathering Colour: Anong Migwans Beam

Monday, June 13, 7 pm
Jackman Hall, Art Gallery of Ontario
Gathering Colour: Anong Migwans Beam

Join artist and paint maker Anong Beam for a talk about her love of pigment, paint, colour, and innovation.

Anong Migwans Beam is a painter from Mchigeeng First Nation on Manitoulin Island and is inspired by the physical history of place, the natural landscape, and the relationship between water and memory. Anong was born to artist parents, Carl Beam and Ann Beam, who encouraged her to develop as an artist. She was raised with a meaningful connection to both her artistic familial roots and rich ancestral heritage. Beam's large format oil paintings incorporate a multitude of image making approaches, including photo transfer, printmaking and collage.

Presented in partnership with AIC 2022: Sensing Colour, Midterm meeting of the International Colour Organization (AIC), organized by the Colour Research Society of Canada
