Because the artworks are the collection of the Canadian Ministry of Foreign Affairs that are being exhibited in the Canadian embassy and have never been open to the public, the experience was that much more unique and special.
Canadian contemporary art has moved up alongside with international exchange and at the same time is clearly showing the national identity, and it is modernizing Canada's beauty and grandeur of nature and ritual features of the indigenous people through abstraction. The title of the exhibition 'Colours of Canada' refers to many colors of Canada that has many ethnicity and cultures.
Along with the exhibition, artworks by Korean-Canadian artists were also held. Artworks by Jinny Yu, professor at the University of Ottawa, who won the Junior Artist Award in Ottawa and made it to the finalist at the New York Pulse Award in 2011, as well as artworks by Choi Yeong-man who is a promising artist in Korea and Canada was shown at the Sookmyung Women's University Cheongpa Gallery I and II from September 5 to 23.
