  • GERALD FERGUSON
Note:

Gerald Ferguson is best known for his wry efforts to torque the boundaries of formalism and conceptualism. Born in Cincinnati Ohio, Ferguson received his MFA from the Ohio University (Athens, OH). After being invited to teach at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design (Halifax, NS), Ferguson relocated to Canada where he resided until his death in October 2009. Ferguson’s works are represented in many collections in Canada, the United States, and in Europe, including the National Gallery of Canada (Ottawa, ON), the Museum of Modern Art (New York, NY) and the Museum Sztuki (Lodz, POL). His art has been exhibited at many prestigious institutions, including solo shows at the Art Gallery of Ontario (Toronto, ON), Vancouver Art Gallery (Vancouver, BC), the Winnipeg Art Gallery (Winnipeg, MB), and the National Gallery of Canada (Ottawa, ON).
