Forecast is an exhibition of artwork from the Remai Modern Collection that contemplates the relationships between people, their environments and the changing climate.
Changes in weather are impacting our daily lives. Forecast invites audiences to reflect on their own memorable weather experiences and meaningful places in nature. By evoking memory and sharing stories, the exhibition attempts to connect issues of climate change to personal experience and explore the historical, social, and political dynamics of our changing environment.
Forecast features 100 works from the collection across a variety of media and time periods, many shown for the first time at Remai Modern. The exhibition includes historical Saskatchewan artists such as James Henderson, Hilda Stewart, Ernest Lindner and Grace Hogg, and Canadian modernists including the Group of Seven. The exhibition features contemporary responses as well, while foregrounding Indigenous perspectives through works by Rebecca Belmore, Lori Blondeau, Brian Jungen, Meryl McMaster and Shelly Niro, among others.
