Conversations on Collecting: Indigenous Approaches to Collecting

The panel is intended as a forum to look at these histories, complexities and the futures both in terms of historical belongings and of contemporary artworks, in the context of issues of repatriation as well as moving beyond colonial frameworks for collecting.

This takes place on the occasion of the exhibition Christos Dikeakos: The Collectors, the second show in our 10th anniversary celebration and features portraits of private collectors, along with selected artists and museums, with their collections.

*Please note this in-person Conversation on Collecting will be hosted at Griffin Art Projects rather than at Vancouver Art Gallery where our previous in-person discussions were held.*

We thank Acera Insurance, Bravo Art Projects and Services, North Vancouver Recreation & Culture, The Hamber Foundation and the Michael and Inna O’Brian Family Foundation for their generous sponsorship of our 10th anniversary program.
