ASLAN GAISUMOV

Contemporary Art Gallery Aslan Gaisumov’s work considers events that remain largely unacknowledged in official Western histories. The exhibition brings together two works that have never before been shown with one another and, in doing so, offers a reconsideration of many of the concerns that have shaped the artist’s practice. contemporaryartgallery.ca THROUGH MARCH 17

THE METAMORPHOSIS Vancouver Art Gallery

The Metamorphosis brings together contemporary art from the Vancouver Art Gallery’s permanent collection that addresses the notion of transformation—whether it be physical, spiritual, or cultural. Many of the works in this exhibition have been acquired within the past five years, and several of them will be on view at the Gallery for the first time. vanartgallery.bc.ca THROUGH MAY 20
