On now + Upcoming: Surrey Art Gallery


These events are worth a trip out to Surrey. Surrey Art Gallery is located at 13750 -88th Ave (604-501-5566) and has put on an interesting show: "Sustainable Architecture in Canada" featuring 55 projects. It includes:
  • 41º to 66º Regional Responses to Sustainable Architecture (still making its way around the country) until Dec 21
  • Building Green: A B.C. showcase (sounds very promising - must remember to go! ) until Dec 14. Featuring Whistler Sliding Centre among others - image above.
  • Regenerative Architecture: Visions of the Future. Imaginations run wild until Dec 21.
What's more - Manufactured Landscapes by Edward Burtynsky Jan 17-March 22 focusing on BC shots, not yet exhibited in this province. A must, of course. Here is one of his lovely B.C. shots which might or might not be in the exhibit:
