Hi Cheri, So happy to hear that you enjoyed the Caravaggio exhibition. It was so incredible to have so many Caravaggios in one space and to see the influence he had on his followers. Our next big summer show is Alex Colville, one of Canada's most celebrated artists. We hope you'll be able to come see it! It will be up from April 24 to September 7. Thanks for your interest in the National Gallery of Canada! Lexie
