Today, we announced a significant new addition to Remai Modern’s collection. The museum has become the first in western Canada (and only third in the country) to acquire a painting by globally celebrated artist Agnes Martin. The late-career painting, titled Tranquility (2000), is composed of ivory and lavender-blue bands that showcase the artist’s lifelong exploration of the subtlety of colour and power of abstraction. Bringing Martin’s work into the Remai Modern Collection allows the museum to tell a very special story that starts in Saskatchewan, in the artist’s birthplace of Macklin, and has impacted the course of art history. The full cost of the acquisition of this significant work was supported by the Frank and Ellen Remai Foundation, whose total gifts to the contemporary art museum total more than $100 million since 2012.

Tranquility will be part of an upcoming suite of exhibitions in 2027 that celebrate Remai Modern’s 10th anniversary.

Join us on April 17 at 7 PM for the Saskatchewan premiere of Amalie Atkins’ feature length debut, Agatha’s Almanac, winner of Best Canadian Feature Documentary at Hot Docs 2025.

This premiere is free and open to the public. The screening will be followed by a Q & A hosted by Aileen Burns, Co-Executive Director & CEO at Remai Modern. Seating is available on a first-come, first-served basis. We expect a large crowd for this screening so please arrive early to reserve your seat.

Agatha’s Almanac follows fiercely independent 90-year-old Agatha Bock as she lives alone on her ancestral farm. Despite health challenges, she defiantly tends to her land, cultivating heirloom seeds passed down through generations. Employing antiquated techniques, Agatha plants and harvests her expansive field entirely by hand.

Agatha’s Almanac serves as a powerful conduit for often-overlooked stories, amplifying voices and rural perspectives. Agatha’s life offers a window into the experiences of a nearly lost generation, whose values and ways of living are at risk of fading as the world rapidly changes.

This Place Remembers is a powerful public intervention created by artist Linda Duvall. The project aims to acknowledge the untold histories of trauma and violence that have left an indelible mark on our city. After inviting members of the public to recommend sites that held personal meaning, she worked with members of STR8 UP and other collaborators to mark each location by planting crocuses which will blossom this spring.

Duvall, members of STR8 UP and other project participants will join us at Remai Modern on April 18 at 1 PM for an afternoon of conversation and reflection about the project. Coffee and tea will be provided!

White Liar and the Known Shore: Frobisher and the Queen is a (size of the photo) collaborative photograph by Laakkuluk Williamson and Jamie Griffiths that confronts colonial histories of discovery, naming, and possession. It placing viewers at the shoreline as a site where land is rendered “known” and power is asserted—asking how these histories persist and how viewers are implicated within them.

You can view this work as part of Williamson and Griffiths’ exhibition Sikuvoq, sikuerpoq / When the ice holds, when it breaks in the Connect Gallery on Level 1.

There’s something new on Level 3!

The monumental sculpture Infinite We by Dyani White Hawk (Sičáŋǧu Lakota) is a sneak peek of her upcoming exhibition, Love Language, which opens in the Marquee Gallery on April 25.

Infinite We is a three-dimensional representation of the kapémni symbol, embodying the Lakota worldview of balance and relatedness. Grounded to the floor, the work swirls upward and expands again, reminding us of connections between the realms of the earth, the spiritual, and the cosmos. Moving around this mosaic sculpture activates a visual rhythm of shapes shifting and multiplying across the surface.

Join us for a first look at Love Language on April 24 at 6 PM, followed by an exhibition tour and community gathering with White Hawk on April 25 at 2 PM. Visitors will encounter Lakota forms and teachings that inform White Hawk’s practice, alongside works addressing urgent issues of settler colonialism and oppression. In the meantime, come see Infinite We on view on Level 3!

Dyani White Hawk: Love Language is co-organized by Remai Modern, Saskatoon and the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis. The exhibition is curated by Tarah Hogue (Métis), Adjunct Curator of Indigenous Art, Remai Modern, and Siri Engberg, Senior Curator and Director of Visual Arts, Walker Art Center; with Brandon Eng, Curatorial Assistant, Visual Arts, Walker Art Center.

Lead support is provided by the Henry Luce Foundation and the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. We acknowledge the support of the Canada Council for the Arts.
