As part of Open Doors Ottawa, got to tour the facility. Strong support from staff members clearly proud of the role of this intriguing Canadian Art jewel.
One of the premiere Canadian art institutions. If you haven't seen the Art Bank for yourself I highly recommend it when you have the chance.
17,000 pieces of art for rent to corporations or government, super knowledgable staff and data online to help you choose.
We visited Art Bank during Open Doors weekend and surprised by the hudge inventory of art pieces
Visited during Doors Open Ottawa. Great opportunity to see works of contemporary Canadian art that are not normally on show to the public. Very cool being able to wander around and pull out racks of paintings.
Very interesting place only open to the public on a couple of days a year. Superb collection and helpful staff.a crazy shame that there is so much canadian art "banked" and not on show! get it out there one of our canadian billlionaires and leave a legacy to build this bank a space to preserve. you know you are out there, just takes one real canadian billionaire with a true connection to painting/ the arts to get this done. not easy to do , i'm sure , but my god , what a legacy that would be.
Fascinating place. 17000 examples of Canadian artists 'work. Not usually open to the public. The art bank lends art to MP's and corporations only for 2 years at a time.
