DESCRIPTION:A live discussion between artist Norman Takeuchi\, and co-curators\, Catherine Sinclair\, Sachiko Okuda\, and Bryce Kanbara \nJoin us for a live panel discussion linked to Shapes in Between: Norman Takeuchi – A Retrospective\, OAG’s current exhibition that highlights the work of Ottawa-based artist Norman Takeuchi. \nFeaturing an array of drawings\, paintings\, and prints spanning the years 1961 to 2022\, Takeuchi’s works throughout this exhibition demonstrate the continuity of his artistic rigour\, and his personal engagement with the impact of the Japanese Canadian internment and forced dispersal during World War II.
