Please join us at READ Books for the launch of The West Coast Modern House.

The West Coast Modern House chronicles the development of Vancouver residential architecture from the 1940’s through its continued influence on contemporary practice. The post-war era in Vancouver defined what has become popularly known as the “West Coast Style.”

Through the work of seminal figures such as BC Binning, Ned Pratt, Ron Thom, Fred Hollingsworth, Douglas Simpson, Barry Downs and Arthur Erickson, Vancouver architects won national awards and international recognition for their innovative house designs. This period is now seen as one of the most important in the city’s architectural history.

The Charles H. Scott Gallery and the Faculty of Graduate Studies are pleased to present an Artist Talk as part of the Rennie Collection Speaker Series.

Artist Talk | Wednesday, October 1, 7pm
Lecture Theatre | Room 301, South Building

ABOUT THE EXHIBITION

The exhibition is primarily comprised of the artist’s recent paintings, with a focus on works that were produced as props for artworks such as The Gifted Amateur, Pipe Cleaner Artist, My Late Early Styles and Lobbing Potatoes at a Gong. Many of these prop paintings were produced and continue to be developed long after the work for which they were originally intended was completed.

The Charles H. Scott Gallery invites you to an exhibition curated by Cate Rimmer at the Satellite Gallery. The Port / Matthew Buckingham: Obscure Moorings is an exhibition in two parts that looks at the points of contact between the maritime worker and the port city and, by extension, the maritime worker’s place within the urban economy.

The Charles H. Scott Gallery is pleased to present a solo show by esteemed Vancouver artist Rodney Graham.
