Latent

The exhibition Latent emerges from conversations between artist Lynda Gammon and curator Carolyn Butler Palmer over the past several years about how artists who identify as women are often overlooked, ignored and sidestepped.  At the Legacy Art Galleries we are proud of the fact that over the past decade the majority of solo exhibitions have featured the work of women artists and this  exhibition furthers our desire to bring forward their work by honouring the many women who remain hidden in the University of Victoria's Art Collection and the mechanisms that conceal them from view: the vault, accessioning, and the catalogue.
