Members' Access: David Blackwood: Myth & Legend
Join us for exclusive Members’ Access from Wednesday, October 8 to Monday, October 13 to mark the opening of David Blackwood: Myth & Legend.
One of Canada's best-known printmakers, David Blackwood (1941–2022) put onto paper an enduring vision of Newfoundland. Born and raised on Bonavista Bay, his hauntingly beautiful images—suffused with struggle and myth—are drawn from childhood memories, dreams, superstitions, legends, and oral traditions.
Tracing Blackwood’s career from his first days as an art student at the Ontario College of Art to his final drawing, this expansive retrospective brings together more than 80 drawings and prints, alongside proofs, copperplates, and archival materials.
Members always see it first! Simply show your digital membership card to enter the gallery and at the exhibition entrance to see the show.
