Art Gallery of Grande Prairie unveils first project supported from Sargent Family Foundation endowment
The Art Gallery of Grande Prairie unveiled its first exhibition project of many on Wednesday.
It is called “Passion Projects” and is the first project of many supported by the Sargent Family Foundation endowment, along with donations from the Destination Marketing Fund and Grande Prairie Regional Tourism Association.
Gallery executive director Jeff Erbach says this is the first exhibition of its kind in the Peace Region and will include some of the 20th century’s most well-known artists, including Pablo Picasso and Marc Chagall.
He says the 41 pieces from Picasso will include 38 prints and three sculptures that depict images of bullfighting.
