The Art Gallery of Alberta is the province's leading public art museum, occupying a boldly sculptural building of curving steel and glass in downtown Edmonton's Churchill Square, opened in 2010. Its dramatic exterior wraps a series of exhibition galleries devoted to historical, modern and contemporary Canadian and international art. Founded in the 1920s, the institution holds a substantial permanent collection alongside travelling shows. The building's swirling metal ribbon has become an architectural landmark in the city centre.
