"It Is What It Is" at the National Gallery, Ottawa

From the National Gallery website:

"It Is What It Is: Recent Acquisitions of New Canadian Art showcases a selection of our most recent acquisitions and reveals the unique ways contemporary Canadian artists are tackling the larger social and political state of the world through their art and how they choose interdisciplinary modes of self-expression that transcend and explode traditional categories, materials and genres.

Our goal is to seek out the best and most innovative works being made today by engaging with the diverse practices of living artists working from coast to coast."

The National Gallery of Canada is located near the historic Byward Market, at the corner of Sussex Drive and St. Patrick Street.

This display begins early November 2010.
