Art Gallery of Ontario Review

The Ontario Gallery is a charming museum designed by architect Frank Gehry, with a modern artistic feel like a crystal boat. The glass walls and glass wings on the north side of the main entrance glow in the night light, making it a beautiful scenery. The spiral staircase inside the museum fully demonstrates Gerry's design talents.

With impressive collections and innovative exhibitions, AGO is a cultural center that attracts both art lovers and casual visitors.

The Ontario Museum of Art is one of Toronto's iconic galleries. Its architecture is very unique, like a crystal boat. At the entrance of the museum, it is the sculpture of Henry Moore, a famous sculptor. The Museum of Art collects a large number of works of art from Europe, the United States and Canada. Some paintings are very precious and come from masters. It's very close to Toronto Chinatown. You might as well come and visit it.

Every Wednesday night from 6:00 to 9:00, Ontario Museum of Art is free. Before 6:00, hundreds of meters of long dragons had been lined up outside the gallery. Georgia O&39; Keeffe's work is a hot spot, so go straight to the second floor, unexpectedly, there is a charge of 12.5 Canadian dollars. Among the treasures in the museum are Henry Moore's sculpture, Emily Carr's two paintings, and Group of Seven's many works.

Very good museum, well-known in North America. I happened to catch the Ai Weiwei exhibition in China when I went there! Ai Weiwei is a well-known artist in the West! I have seen his performance art online. A very sharp and thoughtful fat man! A snake was coiled on the ceiling in this AGO exhibition! The interesting thing is that the snake was made of backpacks! Besides that, the art museum itself is cleverly designed. It is one of my favorite museums! It is worth a visit in Toronto!

Among the exhibits, the famous ones include a series of works by British sculptor Henry Moore (occupying a large exhibition hall on the second floor). There are often temporary special exhibitions of famous painters. Last year I saw the Rubens exhibition, and this time I went to see the promotional posters for the Picasso special exhibition in June 2020. And the most attractive (especially for girls) is the mirror house infinity mirrors of the polka dot queen Yayoi Kusama‼ ️And it is a permanent exhibition in the museum, not a temporary exhibition with a limited time like in New York There is an orange spiral staircase in the middle hall of the museum, which is a popular online celebrity. It is very Instagram-style for taking photos.

Some exhibits are marked with the words "No photography", and visitors still need to abide by the regulations. 3⃣️Yayoi Kusama's Mirror House is next to the cafe on the second floor. You need to make an appointment in advance on the tablet computer at the entrance️, select the time period in English (40 people per time period), leave your mobile phone number (Chinese numbers are also acceptable) and email address, and then calculate the time and go to the mirror house door in advance to queue up. It is recommended to avoid peak hours and go early. I went there when it opened on Friday morning, so there was no need to queue up at all✌
