Barry Ace
Barry Ace
1958 -
Barry Ace is a practicing visual artist and currently lives in Ottawa. He is a debendaagzijig (citizen) of M’Chigeeng First Nation, Odawa Mnis (Manitoulin Island), Ontario, Canada. Ace’s work embraces the impact of the digital age and how it exponentially transforms and infuses Anishinaabeg culture (and other global cultures) with new technologies and new ways of communicating. His work attempts to harness and bridge the precipice between historical and contemporary knowledge, art, and power, while maintaining a distinct Anishinaabeg aesthetic connecting generations.

Ace has exhibited extensively, most recently in: Àbadakone, National Gallery of Canada (2019: Ottawa, Ontario); mazinigwaaso / to bead something, FOFA Gallery, Concordia University (2019: Montreal, Quebec); URL: IRL, Dunlop Art Gallery (2018: Regina, Saskatchewan); Àdisòkàmagan / Nous connaître un peu nous-mêmes / We’ll all become stories, Ottawa Art Gallery (2018: Ottawa, Ontario); Native Fashion Now: North American Native Style (2016 – 2017: Peabody Essex Museum, Salem, Massachusetts); Anishinaabeg Art and Power, Royal Ontario Museum (2017: Toronto, Ontario); Every. Now. Then. Reframing Nationhood, Art Gallery of Ontario (2017: Toronto, Ontario); 2017 Canadian Biennial, National Gallery of Canada (2017: Ottawa, Ontario); Ace’s work can be found in numerous public and private collections in Canada and abroad, most notably; National Gallery of Canada (Ottawa, Ontario); Art Gallery of Ontario (Toronto, Ontario); Canadian Museum of History (Gatineau, Québec); Royal Ontario Museum (Toronto, Ontario); Ottawa Art Gallery (Ottawa, Ontario); Canada Council Art Bank (Ottawa, Ontario); Global Affairs Canada (Ottawa, Ontario); North American Native Museum (Zurich, Switzerland); and Ojibwe Cultural Foundation (M’Chigeeng, Ontario).
