Ilya & Emilia Kabakov: Between Heaven and Earth
Oakville Galleries in Gairloch Gardens and at Centennial Square | May 31–Sep 20, 2025
The exhibition Between Heaven and Earth is presented at both our Gairloch Gardens and Centennial Square locations. This exhibition highlights a number of the artists’ works, including paintings, prints and installations, and spills out into the gardens with several larger artworks. The largest installation is The Ship of Tolerance, a 60-foot long, hand-crafted wooden ship with sails made from children’s paintings, presented lakeside in Gairloch Gardens for one year. Now, marking its 20th anniversary, its first appearance in Canada takes place at a critical time where a crossroads towards a new global order is visible.
