Petition Text
Petition to the House of Commons in Parliament assembled
Whereas:
• Robert Bateman, age 96, a wildlife artist from Salt Spring Island, B.C., is renowned for his art and ecological advocacy;
• The mandate of the National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa is to showcase artists who contribute significantly to Canadian culture and identity; and
• Despite being one of the most celebrated wildlife artists in the world, Mr. Bateman's works have never been exhibited at the National Gallery of Canada.
We, the undersigned, citizens and residents of Canada, call upon the Government of Canada to urge the National Gallery of Canada to organize an exhibition of Robert Bateman's art.
