'Future Geographies: Art in the Century of Climate Change' featuring Josh Kline at the Vancouver Art Gallery, Vancouver, Canada

5 May 2026

From 14 May 2026 – 10 January 2027, the Vancouver Art Gallery presdents 'Future Geographies: Art in the Century of Climate Change' featuring Josh Kline, the first major exhibition in Canada to examine the intersection of the climate crisis and contemporary art on a global scale. As the environmental crisis accelerates, artists around the world are responding with urgency, insight and vision.

Featuring works from the past 25 years, this exhibition underscores the urgency and relevance of sustainability and the environment as defining issues of our time. More than 35 works across a range of media—from large-scale video installations to living sculptures—invite viewers to confront pressing questions about our shared future on this planet.

Presented across multiple floors, Future Geographies includes a newly commissioned work by Jeffrey Gibson and marks the first time several artists are exhibiting in Vancouver, including Teresita Fernández, Josh Kline, Cannupa Hanska Luger, Jean Shin and Clarissa Tossin. The exhibition also features major works by BC–based artists such as Brian Jungen, Gabrielle L’Hirondelle Hill and Lawrence Paul Yuxweluptun Lets’lo:tseltun, connecting global issues with local specificity. Together, the works in this exhibition invite dialogue and create space for imagining.
