ALBERTA FOUNDATION FOR THE ARTS |
- The Art Acquisition Programs: Our vision for acquiring artwork for the Alberta Foundation for the Arts (AFA) collection is to build an internationally respected art collection which reflects the development and achievements of Alberta's visual arts. Artwork is acquired through application for purchase, curatorial purchase and donation.
- The Art Placement Program was started by the AFA in 1976 to extend public exposure to its collection. To meet this objective, the AFA has made the collection accessible for the enhancements of public spaces in goverment offices and buildings, non-profit institutions and organizations.
- The Exhibition Program loans artworks to institutions and galleries for exhibitions in Alberta and across Canada. The historical and contemporary aspects of the collection is valuable to curators, art professionals and educators who regard it as an unparalleled resource for the presentation, research and study of Alberta’s art.
- Research Resources: Our staff can help you access collection records, and other information and materials related to the provincial art collections and the artists represented in the collections for research and study purposes
