The Beaver Hall Group & The Klinkhoff Family
Exhibition & Sale 1 Oct - 14 Nov 2015 Montreal, Toronto With the important exhibition 1920s Modernism in Montreal, The Beaver Hall Group currently at the Art gallery of Hamilton, it is our intention to complement the exposure the exhibition gives to these fine artists by offering for sale some outstanding and important works at our Toronto Gallery. The museum’s exhibition is a wonderful and informative one, accompanied by an extensively researched catalogue – one I think 4 or 5 years in preparation. For our part, we would simply like to reiterate how the Klinkhoff family has been singing the praises of the Beaver Hall Group artists and others for decades now by preparing dozens of non-selling exhibitions in their honour, advising collectors to purchase their work, and acting for some of their estates selling their work. Whereas in some cases we may have been a generation removed from the artist himself or herself, in others we, Dad at any rate, was current with many of their careers.
The knowledge accumulated anecdotally from Mom and Dad’s experiences and more than 40 years of our own organizing a number of non-selling exhibitions honouring many of these artists is significant to our understanding of their work.

Fine Art & Hockey: A Point of View
15 - 29 Oct 2016 Montreal, Toronto For more than 30 years, annually, at Walter Klinkhoff Gallery, Montreal, we would host for two weeks non-selling exhibitions. They usually focused on one artist and occasionally on a group of artists. The objective was to offer a study of an artist and encourage anyone including art students, teachers, collectors and a general public to come to our gallery. This was our way of trying to be known as an approachable, user-friendly art gallery business where one was invited to come in whether or not one was a buyer or seller of fine art. With our limited resources it is a considerable amount of work to organize these shows and was followed by a commitment of two weeks during which the gallery was essentially a museum with nothing to sell, except perhaps good will. It is in that same spirit that we offer Fine Art & Hockey, A Point of View.
