Description: Whispers from the Stone: The James R. and Ann A. Peltier Collection of Chinese Jade showcases the Peltier collection of impressive jade artworks from the Qing Dynasty through the eyes of a Western connoisseur of Chinese culture. Through the curatorship of Helen Delacretaz, curator of decorative and fine art at the Winnipeg Art Gallery, and the scholarship of Barry Till, curator of Asian art at the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria, the exhibition focuses on how the master carver unlocks the form within the raw stone, providing insight to Chinese culture and the art of jade carving.
