Victoria, BC – Warm and intimate. The new Robert Bateman exhibition will make its world premiere at the Bateman Gallery on June 18.
The Robert Bateman: Heart and Home exhibition illuminates the inspirations, connections and soul of an artist steeped in nature. The collection is comprised of extraordinary artwork and pieces, some never-before-seen and meant for an audience of one.
It captures the intimate occasions of birthdays, holidays, and the love that Robert Bateman shares with his close family and friends.
“It sheds a new light on this brilliant artist,” says Andrea Terrón, curator of the exhibition and Head of Gallery for the Bateman Foundation.
“Engaging, intimate and heartfelt. The exhibition immerses guests to see Robert through the lens of loved ones. You’ll find a mix of masterpieces and pieces that are and will become cherished treasures passed down for generations.”
Just like capturing the fleeting moments of light in the natural world, Robert savours the moments of creating gifts to express his care.
Guests are able to step into Robert’s studio and be immersed in the artist’s space. In the next room, a Bateman Christmas in the 90s has a 54” sculpted Nutcracker with a mischievous grin standing beside a handcrafted Christmas crèche. The journey continues with paintings, drawings and furniture pieces gifted to loved ones. Timeless and detailed, the pieces can be passed down and enjoyed by future generations.
