A Vibrant Collection

"Here you will find a dazzling collection that captures the diversity of the University of Alberta Museums Art Collection, including some of the oldest works in the collection to some works from Canada's most renowned Indigenous artists. No doubt, this diversity will continue to thrive and grow as this collection moves into its second century, continuing to enrich the lives of all members of the university community."

- President Bill Flanagan

The University of Alberta Museums Art Collection (UAMAC) is a diverse and vibrant collection. It features notable artists dating back to the 16th century, as well as emerging artists that are being mentored in Edmonton. The collection documents the work of art by artists that have made Edmonton their home, and have taught generations of students at the University of Alberta. This collection features works of art by internationally acclaimed artists, to some of Canada’s most noted Indigenous artists.
