The New AGO: Frank Gehry's Redesign

The new AGO is Toronto-born Frank Gehry’s first building in Canada and marks the very place where he made the initial connectionbetween art and architecture. Hallmarks of his AGO design connectthe city and the Gallery in provocative new ways including,dramatic sculptural staircases, the warmth of Douglas fir, andthe extensive use of glass which infuses the galleries with naturallight. As you will discover, it is an extraordinary new home forextraordinary new art.
