Nanna Debois Buhl’s solo exhibition at SAAG, her first in Canada, brings together a body of work, exploring Denmark's colonial history in what is now the U.S. Virgin Islands, an area where Danish, U.S., and African-Caribbean histories intersect.
Brendan Tang boasts a ceramic practice that is distinctly contemporary, yet rooted heavily in ancient traditions. Robotic armatures, mechanical hulls, rocket thrusters and other futuristic, manga/mecha-inspired components are fused together with delicate Ming dynasty vessels in an orgiastic mass. More than sculptural objects, they are entities entwined in a symbiotic relationship of mutual dependence. More than beautiful craft, they prompt conversations about globalism, hybridity, identity and the commodification of cultural artifacts.
We're celebrating the return of the Coulees & Culture Connection! Discover the historical, cultural and natural treasures within our city.

Volunteer Opportunity
Bartending is a great way to enjoy social functions at SAAG while lending a helping hand. Talk to everyone at the party as you complete their drink orders. If you’re outgoing and good with cash, this is the gig for you. Our next bartending volunteer opportunity is Happy Hour on Friday, March 26 from 5:00 PM to 8:00PM.
