The Glenbow Museum is
one of the largest museums's in Western Canada. Established in 1966, it has
over 20 galleries with all sorts of different art pieces from all over the
world. The Glenbow also has a library that contains over 100,00 reading sources
like books, newspapers, and maps.
There are quite a few interesting exhibits currently at the
museum. Since many exhibits travel throughout many different museum's, you have
to take the opportunity to view these pieces before they leave. Some
of the few exhibits currently at the Glenbow are:
-Fairy Tales and Monsters and the Genetic Imagination:
"Inspired by literature, science fiction and scientific genetic
experimentation, leading international artists have conceived fantastical
humanlike, animal or hybrid creatures to symbolize life's mysteries, desires
and fears."
-Florilegeium: Works by Calgary Artist Jennifer Wanner. These mainly include pieces made by all sorts of plants.
There are constant new pieces showing up at the Glenbow Museum, so keep checking back to their website and find out what new and interesting pieces will be coming that year.
