Pop-up concert lovers, take note! The Vancouver Art Gallery is hosting two back-to-back live music performances this week as part of a new series called New Music at the Gallery. Visitors of the gallery can expect to see concerts by the New Coast String Quartet, followed by a special celebration of Pride by Feven Kidane Quartet.
Presented in partnership with the Canadian Music Centre BC, the former will draw inspiration from the Gallery’s current exhibit, The Imitation Game: Visual Culture in the Age of Artificial Intelligence. The latter will kick off Pride at the Gallery in celebration of Vancouver’s 2SLGBTQAI+ communities with compositions in the Black American Music, or jazz, tradition, inspired by the exhibition Uninvited: Canadian Women Artists in the Modern Moment.
