And how could I forget?!?
The Armenian painter Arshile Gorky has an original hanging there, "They Will Take My Island" (1944) and there was what seemed to be an iPod on the wall with three short little videos of Atom Egoyan, standing in front of the very painting, discussing his background and the significnace of the painting and how it impacted him as a youth when he came to the gallery the first time and saw it.
There's also works by Joyce Weiland ("Woman Amusing Herself"),
J.W. Waterhouse, H.R. Watson, Bazzani, Otto Dix, and John Selby-Bigge (loved his single painting "Objects in Front of a Window") +
Magritte, Degas, just scores and scores of incredible paintings to gaze at.
Wonderful, extremely interesting and engaging art gallery.
