“The task of the artist, then, is to force us to re-see the ordinary – that collection of things which we have replaced with place-holders. In this way, we are able to see that every single thing can be raised up, as it were, can be re-seen, as if for the first time.”
Jonathan Castellino, On Art and Aesthetics, 2020

The sculptures of E.B. Cox, R.C.A. (1914-2003) hold a special place in our shared art history. Through figurative, animal, and abstract forms to the artist’s monumental large-scale works, Cox is considered the country’s foremost stone sculptor and his works are found on view more than any other artist in the city of Toronto.

An installation is currently on view at the gallery highlighting the extraordinary works of Nicholas Hornyansky, R.C.A. (1896-1965). Focusing attention on aquatint printmaking, Hornyansky technically mastered and advanced the medium while dedicating considerable energy toward the appreciation and support of other artists in the field of printmaking. His work is part of countless significant collections, which include the National Gallery of Canada, the Library of Congress in the United States, and the private collection of Dowager Queen Elisabeth of Belgium. Film studies have uncovered Hornyansky’s work appearing in Stanley Kubrick’s lauded 1980 film The Shining.
