Several hundred patrons explored the exhibitions and met artist Charles Stankievech, whose works are featured in , a probing examination of 20th-century military forms and the ways they’ve shaped spaces of conflict.

Other shows featured this winter include – an exhibition of watercolours and sketches by British-born artists who received artistic training in England and worked in Canada during the 19th century – and – a new exhibition drawn from that offers insight into the flowering of a distinctive school of art in 17th-century Amsterdam.
