Patricia B. Wolf Family Galleries

Dog Show is a celebration of human-dog relationships across geography and time. The exhibition considers the histories of dogs in the Circumpolar North, their importance to lifeways and culture in the region, and the role of dogs in contemporary life across the US as pets, helpmates, and family members. Contemporary and historical artworks, cultural belongings, archival images, and ephemera from Canada, Greenland, Norway, and the Lower 48 showcase the ways dogs have shaped our place as well as our society, shedding light on the myriad ways we understand affective and relational bonds between people and animals. Family-friendly interactives, outdoor art installations and experiences, and robust programming will accompany the in-gallery experience of  Dog Show.
