Library & Archives Unshelved: Surrealism & Automatism in Québec Illustration

Wednesday February 28, 6-8 pm (Drop-In)
E.P. Taylor Library & Archives, Art Gallery of Ontario

This monthly drop-in hosted by AGO librarians and archivists gives visitors a first-hand glimpse of highlights from the AGO Library & Archives collection.  In February’s event, librarian Larry Pfaff presents a selection of illustrated books and periodicals from the 1940s to the 1960s featuring the works of Jean-Paul Riopelle, Paul-Émile Borduas, Alfred Pellan, and their contemporaries. Please visit at any point from 6 to 8 pm to enjoy a personalized encounter with this collection.

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.
