| Housed in a stunning, turn-of-the century heritage building in the heart of downtown, the Vancouver Art Gallery holds an impressive collection of nearly 9,000 artworks. Wander through its four floors of gallery space and meditate on more than a century's worth of British Columbian and international visual media. Expanding Horizons: American and Canadian Landscaping Painting and Photography, 1860-1918 (October 17, 2009 to January 17, 2010) Encompassing major artistic figures on both sides of the Canadian-American border, this major survey explores national identity as expressed through the dramatic grandeur of landscape painting and photography between 1867 and 1918. Captured in the exhibition are sweeping vistas rendered by Canadians Emily Carr, Lawren Harris, A.Y. David Milne, Tom Thomson and William Notman, and Americans Frederic Edwin Church, Georgia O’Keefe, John Singer Sargent, Edward Curtis and Alfred Stieglitz.
