Agnes Etherington Art Centre

Situated on traditional Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee territory, Agnes is a curatorially-driven and research-intensive professional art centre that proudly serves a dual mandate as a leading, internationally recognized public art gallery and as an active pedagogical resource at Queen’s University. By commissioning, researching, collecting and preserving works of art, and by exhibiting and interpreting visual culture through an intersectional lens, Agnes creates opportunities for participation and exchange across communities, cultures, histories and geographies.

 

Its collections—numbering over 17,000 works—include cutting-edge contemporary art and fine examples of Canadian historical art, Indigenous art and historicized ancestors, and material culture including the Collection of Canadian Dress and the Lang Collection of African Art. The Bader Collection, comprising over 500 works with a focus on seventeenth-century Dutch and Flemish painting, includes one portrait and three exquisite character studies by Rembrandt.

 

Agnes is committed to anti-racism. We work to eradicate institutional biases and develop accountable programs that support and centre the artistic expression and lived experience of Black, Indigenous and People of Colour. Agnes promotes 2SLGBTQIAP+ positive spaces. Admission is free and everyone is welcome.

In a collaborative partnership, The Johnson, Johnston and Macrae Investment Group is the proud sponsor for Agnes's Art and Wellness Speaker Series. 

 

We are thrilled to support Agnes, a vibrant and culturally dynamic organization. We serve the community by enriching quality of life for families and businesses, much in the way art empowers us with a sense of purpose, improving our lives through creativity and nourishment. This partnership is a wonderful vehicle for our valued clients to learn about the art world through gala events and the Art and Wellness Speaker Series. Art persuades us to see the world from a thoughtful and diverse perspective, promoting entrepreneurial and productive energy. In the world of wealth management, what separates us from the rest is our ability to leverage this energy to do great work with our clients. Investing in the arts is investing in the community, and that is a shared value, and the crux of everything we do.

[On screen: "Installation view of History Is Rarely Black or White with Gordon Shadrach's paintings, 2021–2022." A gallery room is painted in a rich red, complemented by polished hardwood floors. Portraits in ornate frames, each capturing a unique individual in a realistic style, adorn the walls. A text panel to the left introduces the exhibition, exploring racial identity and historical narratives. ]

 

[On screen: "Installation view of Studies in Solitude: The Art of Depicting Seclusion, 2022." The interior of a gallery, walls colored in a subdued gray and matched with light wood flooring, holds framed traditional artworks. These pieces, set within elaborate frames, explore themes of introspection and retreat. A prominent black wall with descriptive text bisects the space, offering insights into the artists' contemplation on solitude. ]

 

[On screen: "Installation view of With Opened Mouths, 2021." An exhibition is presented, featuring an array of sculptural masks on poles arrayed in a semicircle atop a bed of sand. A dynamic photographic mural of crashing ocean waves forms the backdrop, creating an immersive atmosphere. A video display to the side zooms in on a mask, likely part of an integrated media element in the exhibit. ]

[On screen: Creation Station for families at Agnes Etherington Art Centre." Adults and children are engaged in art-making at a cluttered table strewn with colorful craft materials. One child focuses intently on his creation, surrounded by adults who assist and create alongside him. The room is bright, with art supplies and works-in-progress visible in the background.]

 

[On screen: Jatiwangi art Factory jam session at Agnes as part of their micro-residency." Musicians with various instruments, including a double bass, drum, and synthesizer, are set up in a cozy room with large windows and a patterned rug. They appear focused and immersed in their music-making, with equipment and cables scattered around them. ]

 

[On screen: Art Hive at Agnes, a free art and wellness workshop, welcomes all levels of ability to drop in and enjoy creative experimentation.] Individuals are gathered around tables covered with craft materials and art pieces. They are actively engaged in creating art, with a sense of casual, creative exploration. The space is well-lit, with large windows providing natural light.]
