The Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery is a contemporary art gallery located in Vancouver, British Columbia, on the campus of the University of British Columbia.

The gallery is housed in an award-winning building designed by architect Peter Cardew and opened in 1995, and "has been praised for its economical plan, expressive interiors and dramatic structure."[1] Stored on site is UBC’s growing collection of contemporary art, as well as an archive containing more than 30,000 objects related to the history of art in Vancouver.

The Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery mounts 4 to 7 exhibitions of art every year by nationally and internationally important artists, and works from the collection are showcased annually in a thematic exhibition. The Belkin Art Gallery creates small scale traveling exhibitions for circulation within Canada, and collaborates on large scale exhibitions internationally. Also at the heart of the gallery's mandate are research, publications, and a program of screenings, performances, and lectures by artists, scholars, curators and critics.

Outdoor art has become an increasingly important aspect of the collection at UBC. Since 2003, new works have been installed on campus by renowned artists Rodney Graham, Jamelie Hassan, Myfanwy Macleod, and Edgar Heap of Birds. A self-guided tour of outdoor art on campus can be downloaded from the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery website.[2]

Admission to the gallery is free.

History

The UBC Fine Arts Gallery was founded in 1948, occupying a section in the basement of Main Library on the University campus. At this time, the Fine Arts Gallery was the only venue in the Vancouver region that focused exclusively on contemporary art. The gallery rose in national status during the 1960s and 1970s by presenting innovative work by artists who were establishing Vancouver on the international art scene. Until 1994, the gallery was used only as an exhibition space; afterwards, it began to house and administer the University Art Collection. On June 14, 1995, the Fine Arts Gallery was rededicated as the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery and opened its new facility at 1825 Main Mall.[3]

Permanent Collection

The Morris and Helen Belkin Gallery is home to the works of such artists as Torrie Groening, Carol Conde, Judith Lodge, Skeena Reece, Karen Azoulay, Joyce Wieland, Rebecca Belmore.

Select Exhibitions

From 2017 to 2019, curator Lorna Brown curated a four-part series of exhibitions under the title of Beginning with the 70s, an ongoing research and archival project examining the generative potential of the era.[4] The exhibitions include GLUT, Radial Change, Collective Acts, Hexsa'am: To Be Here Always which exhibited artists such as Christine D'Onofrio, Marianne Nicolson, Althea Thauberger, Alexandra Bischoff, Gathie Faulk, Anne Ramsden, Elizabeth Zvonar, Kate Craig, Carole Itter, Dana Claxton, Jeneen Frei Njootli, Gutai, Laiwan, and the Salish Weavers Guild.
