COLLECTION

The MacKenzie Art Gallery’s mission is to serve our community by exhibiting, collecting, preserving and interpreting original works of art. As a public art gallery, we do not sell the works on display nor do we offer appraisals.

It was the bequest of Regina lawyer Norman MacKenzie that initiated the permanent collection of the MacKenzie Art Gallery. Today the collection numbers more then 3800 artworks including Canadian historical and contemporary works with a special interest in Western Canadian art. Our collection of 19th and 20th century European works on paper is regarded as one of Western Canada’s finest. In recent years, photography, folk art and work by Aboriginal artists have also been a focal point of our collecting. The permanent collection of the MacKenzie Art Gallery is held in trust, leaving a legacy of art for the people of Saskatchewan.

The preservation of the MacKenzie Art Gallery’s collection for future generations is an important part of the Gallery’s mandate. To do this, our Conservator works to minimize all causes of deterioration or damage during storage and display. Controlling light, heat, relative humidity and handling is essential for conservation.

The MacKenzie's online collection is currently under construction. At this time you are not able to view the images of artwork in the permanent collection but you are still able to view the data regarding the artwork.
