Three works of art in our current exhibition, Passions of the Eye (highlighting exceptional works from Hamilton private collections), provide the jumping off point for three new videos in McMaster Museum of Art’s Museum in a Minute Series.
Teresa Gregorio, who leads many of the Museum’s school tours, looks to E. Robert Ross’s monumental painting of Newfoundland to start a discussion of large scale, William Blair Bruce’s informal portrait of Hamilton Mayor Charlton to look at the opposite end of the scale, and Pierre Charles Canot’s commemorative engraving of a historic moment in Canadian history to discuss engraving in the 18th century.
Check them out (and explore the rest of the series on our Youtube channel) and be sure to see the exhibition Passions of the Eye which continues until August 1, 2015.
