BURNABY ART GALLERY

DRAWINGS FROM THE COLLECTION: B.C. BINNING

June 2 — September 13


Bertram Charles Binning was a leading figure in British Columbia's postwar modernist era. His art spans nearly four decades, with the majority of his drawings, paintings and sculptures reflecting a nautical theme and a sense of time and place. Binning's drawings often reflect a keen sense of space and line - attributes which propelled him to local and national success throughout the 1940s and 1950s. His draftsmanship, while deceptively simple and light, demonstrates adept skill and knowledge of his subjects. The Burnaby Art Gallery's exhibition, BC Binning, represents a small collection of the Gallery's holdings, many of which were donated to the gallery in 2008 by the estate of Jessie Binning.
