The AIC did an amazing job, the contemporary, modern, design and architecture galleries are amazing. Photo is a bit uneven and what in the hell is up with the weird installation of the excellent Jeff Wall piece paired up with little works that don't connect at all outside of the photo galleries? The Jeff Wall works deserve better that the odd afterthought installation. Still it is nice to have them have better gallery space. But beyond that glitch, everything is amazing. I was stunned that the AIC even had a design collection, the new design gallery was spectacular, Curator Zoe Ryan is to be applauded! Anyway, I could rattle on, stop reading this and head the hell over to the AIC!

I haven't seen it of course yet, living in Europe, and I appreciate a little enthusiasm, --- but is it REALLY all that hunky-fdory?

I visited the Modern Wing last night and felt like I had a deeper understanding of how and why the work was chosen for the galleries. The podcast enhanced my experience of this exciting new space. The best part was watching my boyfriend getting excited and inspired by the art. He was even taking notes! I think the new Modern Wing will have that effect on many visitors, and I encourage EVERYONE to go see it. Thanks so much for this podcast “tour”.

Anyway, not sure that was any more articulate than my first muddled comment.
