Members' Access: Jinny Yu: at once

Friday, June 21, 2024, 5:00 PM - 9:00 PM
Art Gallery of Ontario

Join us for exclusive Members’ Access on Friday, June 21, 2024, from 5:00 PM - 9:00 PM to mark the opening of Jinny Yu: at once.

Jinny Yu makes her AGO debut with an exhibition of new works, including oil on aluminum paintings and works on paper. Born in Korea and now based in Ottawa and Berlin, for the past twenty years, she has been an active professional artist and educator,  using abstract and geometric forms to consider the implications of mass migration and rapid social change.  In a departure from her usual practice of exclusively using black paint, here Yu uses vivid colours, transparency and distorted forms to continue questioning what it means to be a guest and a host. This exhibition is curated by Georgiana Uhlyarik, Fredrik S. Eaton Curator of Canadian Art, AGO.

Members always see it first! Simply show your digital Membership card to enter the Gallery and at the exhibition entrance to see the show.
