On Friday, November 14, the fully-transformed Art Gallery of Ontario opened its doors to the public.
The Transformed Art Gallery of Ontario is Toronto native Frank Gehry’s most recent building, and his first in Canada. Hallmarks of his AGO design include dramatic sculptural staircases, the warmth of Douglas fir, and the extensive use of glass to infuse the galleries with natural light and connect the city and the Gallery in provocative new ways.
