New Acquisitions celebrates recent gifts and purchases to the City of Burnaby Permanent Art Collection, a creative resource that tells the story of our community and connects Burnaby to artists and practices worldwide. Representing both the collection trends of local citizens who have generously donated artworks, as well as the mandate of the Gallery to preserve works from diverse perspectives into the future, New Acquisitions showcases a deep plurality of voices. The exhibition features recent work from Shuvinai Ashoona, Chun Hua Catherine Dong, Rawan Hassan, Karice Mitchell, Kimberly Fulton Orozco, Manuel Axel Strain, and Tania Willard, as well as historical works by Garo Antreasian, Glenn Brown, Honoré Daumier, Salme Kaljur, Concordia Klar, Pedro Puerta, Ann Newdigate, Robert Rauschenberg, Parviz Tanavoli, Kunisada Utagawa, Andy Warhol, and more.
