Kenneth Lochhead and Ronald Bloore were both professors at the University of Regina in the 1950s-60s. Lochhead was head of the art department and Bloore was curator at the Mackenzie Art Gallery. Both were instrumental in the action expression art movement in the 60s. Both with very different approaches to art but with a shared passion for creating and making art that brought them together. With McKay, Morton and Godwin, they became known as the Regina Five.
Their work was more diverse and expansive throughout their careers then perhaps commonly known. This exhibition high lights the diversity, intellect, and devotion both Lochhead and Bloore shared.
