Synopsis
Out of the richness and breadth of The Winnipeg Art Gallery's collection, Mary Jo Hughes has created a survey of Canadian historical art. Images express artistic trends of the 19th and 20th centuries and speak of changing social, political and aesthetic issues: exploration, colonization, nationalism, growth, conflict, the search for a unique Canadian expression, and acceptance of the modern world.
