The Gallery
The Redeemer University Art Gallery is a not-for-profit art gallery on the campus that supports the educational mission of the Art Department by facilitating conversations at the intersection of faith and visual art. The Gallery plays an integral role in students’ education by offering encounters with original works of art that nurture visual literacy, critical thinking and contemplation.
The gallery is an exhibition space for artists inside and outside the community of faith who invite meaningful connections between art, theology, and the human condition. Students are encouraged to investigate the relationship between their Christian worldview and artwork created within the contemporary world.
For over 30 years, this dedicated 2,500 square foot gallery has been a place where students, regional and national artists have exhibited outside the demands of the commercial gallery scene. From important Canadian artists such as Greg Curnoe and Kenojuak Ashevak to contemporary Christian artists such Gerard Pas, James Paterson and Maria Gabankova, the Gallery creates opportunities for the University community and general public to engage with a diverse array of creative production.
In addition to themed and solo exhibitions by professional artists, the Gallery offers opportunities for students to show work in an annual juried exhibition. During their capstone senior year, Art Majors prepare intensely for their thesis exhibit that is held in the Gallery at the end of the Fall and Winter semesters.
