McBride Contemporain is happy to announce that the artwork Ursus arctos, CMNMA # 11041 (Grizzly cranium, crane de grizzly), 2024, by Lorraine Simms has been acquired by la Musée d'art contemporain de Baie-Saint-Paul.
Lorraine Simms’ practice is located in a form of contemporary interrogation and commentary upon nature. Animal forms have appeared in her paintings, drawings and sculptures for over twenty years. Her recent works explore our relationship to the natural world by highlighting the manner in which animals are represented within our society, over the long course of their depiction in still-life painting, as well as in terms of their posthumous collection and scientific understanding.
