Sternberg Exhibit: Into the Arctic: An Exhibition of Art & Film
Tuesday, August 4, 2020
INTO THE ARCTIC showcases over fifty original oil paintings by artist Cory Tre`panier. Over a decade in the making, this traveling exhibition comprises highlights from the most ambitious body of artwork ever dedicated to the Canadian Arctic.
With a pack full of painting, filming, & camping gear, Tre`panier traversed over 40,000 kilometers, through six Arctic National Parks & 16 Arctic communities, exploring many more places in between, in a biosphere so remote & untouched, that most of its vast landscape has never been painted before.
Named one of Canada's Top 100 Living Explorers by Canadian Geographic Magazine, Tre`panier carries on the tradition of painting first made famous by Canadian's Group of Seven, but with the environmental concern of a contemporary artist. Contextualizing the artist's majestic paintings is a series of Arctic films,which cinematically convey the wonder of the North while documenting his expeditions.
