GAME ON

March 20, 2025 - May 25, 2025

 Presented alongside SPORTS SPORTS SPORTS, GAME ON features works from AWE’s collection that reveal the links between athleticism and the visual arts. From the once scandalous Femme au bord de la mer (1930) by Prudence Heward to more recent works by Liss Platt and Karen Kraven, this exhibition demonstrates how artists approach issues around the body, athleticism, competition and comradery. 

Featured artists include IAIN BAXTER&, Carl Beam, Roland Brener, Lynne Cohen, Greg Curnoe, Adèle Duck, Sorel Etrog, Bill Featherston, Robert Hedrick, Prudence Heward, Barrie Jones, Alex Katz, Karen Kraven, William Kurelek, Cyndra MacDowall, Charles Pachter, Liss Platt, Claude Tousignant, Ruth Annaqtuusi Tulurialik, and Andy Warhol.
