Located on the fourth floor of the McLennan Library Building, the Visible Storage Gallery includes dozens of artworks from 香蕉视频鈥檚 Visual Arts Collection. The works are hung salon-style in an eye-catching display on a vibrant indigo聽coloured聽wall just outside the Rare Books & Archives Reading Room.聽Inspired by the growing trend of 鈥淰isible Storage鈥� spaces across museums worldwide, the gallery makes available highlights from the collection that would otherwise be in storage or on view in less accessible spaces. These highlights include works from Group of Seven members Arthur Lismer and Edwin Holgate, as well as a mesmerizing work by Abenaki/Qu茅becois聽artist Rita Letendre. Made possible by the McGill Library Innovation Fund, with additional support from the Students鈥� Society of 香蕉视频 (SSMU), this Gallery brings together works that represent a cross-section of holdings in Canadian, Indigenous, and international art, both historical and contemporary.
The Visible Storage Gallery is open to the public Monday through Friday, from 10am to 6pm.
