Remai Modern

Opening Weekend Events October 21-22

A civic ceremony and grand opening at 8:30 AM Saturday, October 21, includes official remarks and traditional Indigenous and Métis performances. Admission is free from 10 AM to 6 PM October 21 and 22, thanks to sponsorship from KPMG and Rawlco Radio.

This allows access to Remai Modern’s inaugural exhibition, Field Guide, and dynamic programming throughout the building, including performances and film screenings. One highlight is a live installation by New York-based artist and choreographer Maria Hassabi. The work, STAGING (2017) – undressed, blends dance and visual art. Hassabi and four other artists will perform throughout Remai Modern’s public spaces from 1-5 PM October 21 and 22.

Norwegian vocalist Stine Janvin headlines the ticketed Opening Night Party at 8 PM October 21 with her experimental music, sound and audiovisual content.

The party offers after-hours access to the exhibitions, live programs, food and drink. Tickets will be available at www.remaimodern.org in early October.

Field Guide, curated by Executive Director & CEO, Gregory Burke, and Director of Programs & Chief Curator, Sandra Guimarães, will animate the entire building. Click HERE for details.
