Materials are laid bare in the construction of this remarkable building—concrete, steel, brick, glass, and wood—yet the experience of the space is anything but plain. The same alchemy is at work throughout the Permanent Collection, where humble materials are transformed through imagination, skilled hands, and heat into objects of beauty, function, and meaning. Fine art and craft coexist at the Canadian Clay & Glass Gallery. Form and function, colour and design, technique and expression, tradition and innovation—these relationships shape every work, though no two artists strike the same balance.
