Stimulating. Challenging. Engaging. These are just a few adjectives that aptly describe RBC Wealth Management’s art collection.

With the human figure as its focus, the collection reflects the rich cultural diversity and complexity of contemporary society. From realistic to abstract, serious to whimsical, its works of art offer a breadth of approaches and subjects. Appropriation, performance, and digital manipulation are but a handful of the strategies deployed in the creation of these artworks; and hybrid racial identities, family dynamics, and ethnic heritage but a few of the complicated topics they tackle.

Made by both established artists—John Baldessari, Kerry James Marshall, and Ann Hamilton—and those rising in their careers—Luis Gispert, Chen Qiulin, and Michael Vasquez—the selections in this exhibition present a cross-section of identity that mirrors who we are and how we live today.
