Landon Mackenzie: Recollect(s)

Landon Mackenzie: Recollect(s) is a survey of works from the artist’s 40-year career shown alongside a selection of paintings by such formidable Canadian artists as Jock Macdonald, Walter Yarwood, Harold Town, Michael Snow and Gordon Smith, assembled by her family in the late 1950s.

With the inclusion of these powerful proponents of Canadian abstraction—as well as a 1912 painting by Emily Carr paired with Mackenzie’s Woo ll from 2014—the exhibition establishes a dialogue between Mackenzie and the past, highlighting their influence on her practice and her own role as mentor and Professor at Emily Carr University of Art + Design.
