Art Gallery in Canada.

The Beaverbrook Art Gallery, a gift to the people of New Brunswick from Lord Beaverbrook (Sir Max Aitken), features works by Canadian and British artists and a unique sample of works from international artists. The Gallery exhibits an exciting mix of works from its own collection as well as works and exhibitions on loan from other institutions. The Gallery’s icon, Salvador Dalí’s Santiago el Grande is on permanent display.

In 1981 Marguerite and Murray Vaughan endowed the Hosmer Pillow Vaughan Gallery to house a collection of Continental fine and decorative art spanning seven centuries. The collection, assembled by Charles and Elwood Hosmer, has remained together through four generations, a unique distinction within the Canadian collecting community. At the same time the Beaverbrook Canadian Foundation funded the construction of the Sir Max Aitken Gallery, named in honour of Beaverbrook’s son. This gallery showcases the British collection of seventeenth-, eighteenth- and nineteenth-century pictures primarily acquired by Lord Beaverbrook. Both galleries constitute part of the new east wing, which opened to the public in 1983.
