Moments in Modernism <\/em>highlights the diversity and high quality of the AGO\u2019s modern art collection, which has been built over time by generations of museum curators and patrons. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This installation will show collection strengths from artistic movements such as Pop Art, Abstraction, Realism, and Minimalism.  An international approach in artistic styles will be presented, including a body of work from the AGO holdings by Brazilian artists, recognizing the global nature of modernism. A selection of contemporary works that respond to modernist movements will also be shown. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many of the artists, including Andy Warhol, Helen Frankenthaler, Jules Olitski, Gerhard Richter, and Mark Rothko are well known while others are still yet to be broadly recognized such as Tomie Ohtake, Rubem Valentim, Gene Davis and Kazuo Nakamura. A particular focus will be Canadian artists including Alex Colville, Rita Letendre, Jack Bush, Agnes Martin, Guido Molinari and Norval Morrisseau.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moments in Modernism<\/em> features artworks that will form the cornerstone for the expansion of the new Dani Reiss Modern and Contemporary Gallery, starting construction in 2024.  The new building is being designed by architects Diamond Schmitt, Selldorf Architects and Two Row Architect to showcase the AGO’s growing collection of modern and contemporary art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This exhibition is organized by the Art Gallery of Ontario. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
