Major McInnis Work Rediscovered
RFM McInnis has been represented by Roberts Gallery for nearly 30 years. His first solo show with us was in 1989, but he had been painting long before that. During his time in Calgary, in the late 70’s, McInnis produced a large 13 panel piece called The Demise of Seventeenth Avenue. It was recently rediscovered in Yellowknife and installed in the Glenbow Museum in Calgary.
