Exhibition A Series by Lynda Cuddy at the McGill Branch Library to
November 16, 2009.
The Burnaby Art Gallery is pleased to present this series of prints from
the City of Burnaby Permanent Art Collection in which the artist Lynda
Cuddy used various print formats to investigate the graphic nature of
the letter A. Made throughout 1986 and gifted to the collection by the
artist that year the series was inspired by the artist's interest in
magazine design and typography. Although individual prints from the
series have appeared in group shows at The Burnaby Art Gallery this is
the first time that the series has been shown in its entirety. A
long-time friend of the Burnaby Art Gallery, the gallery would like to
thank Lynda for her years of support and her enthusiasm in helping to
mount this exhibition.
