Art Gallery of Ontario | Brian Jungen
In early summer 2022, the AGO installed a bold new sculpture by acclaimed contemporary artist Brian Jungen. This work is the museum’s first ever public art commission, and will be situated at the corner of Dundas and McCaul Streets – the former setting for Henry Moore’s Large Two Forms (1966–1969).
An artist of Dane-zaa and European heritage, Jungen (b.1970) is internationally renowned for his sculptures and installations made from repurposed consumer goods. In his extensive body of work, Jungen engages with both Indigenous materials and traditions as well as Western art history and popular culture.
