Read excerpt
The Vancouver Art Gallery’s board of trustees have named Eva Respini and Sirish Rao as its co-chief executive officers in a rare dual appointment to a top job in Canada’s visual-art sector. The pair have been interim co-CEOs for the past 18 months after Anthony Kiendl’s departure as director and chief executive officer.

Read excerpt
Toronto-based Métis artist Jason Baerg has studied in the United States, taught in the United States and sold artwork in the United States.

The two organizations declined to reveal the value when The Globe and Mail first reported on the settlement in June.
