Dr Victor Phillip Dahdaleh and his Foundation extend the Principal Sponsorship of Canada Gallery for further five years to 2023
Having been the Principal Sponsor of the Canada Gallery since 2015, when the refurbished Canadian High Commission to the UK was re-opened, Dr Victor Phillip Dahdaleh and his Dahdaleh Foundation, has extended that Principal Sponsor support for a further five years until 2030.
The Canada Gallery is an important showcase for Canadian contemporary art in London and is part of the cultural promotional activities of the High Commission of Canada in the United Kingdom.
Victor Phillip Dahdaleh commented:
‘It is a real pleasure to extend our support as Principal Sponsor to the Canada Gallery, now totalling 15 years. We look forward to continuing that support for many years to come.
‘The Gallery has become an important focal point for sharing Canadian contemporary art with the UK and we are delighted to support that cultural exchange, building relationships between Canada and the UK in such a positive way.’
Robert Fry, Deputy High Commissioner said, ‘The Canada Gallery offers a unique platform to showcase the talent, creativity and innovation of Canadian artists here in the UK. Thanks to the generous support of the Dahdaleh Foundation to the Canada Gallery, our artists are able to share their work with new audiences, seek new opportunities in UK markets, and add their voices to those representing Canada abroad.’
The Canada Gallery is currently hosting a special exhibition ‘1925 – 2025: A Century in Canada House.
It is a new documentary exhibition exploring the history of the iconic building, the dedicated people who have shaped its legacy, and the pivotal role Canada House has played in fostering Canada-UK relations. Created in collaboration with the Library and Archives Canada, with the exclusive additional support of Victor Phillip Dahdaleh and the Dahdaleh Foundation.
The exhibition runs until 30th August 2025.
