In the spirit of the festive classic Santa Baby from 1953, TrépanierBaer is delighted to present its own Christmas list as per the tongue-in-cheek holiday favorite, with suggested gifts from our trove of stunning works.

This year, instead of a sable under the tree, ask Santa for… a bear! Well, not a real one, of course, but a depicted ursine creature by DaveandJenn in a colourful painting titled Ask Me Again if That Bear is a Rock, 2007. Inspired by the duo’s hike in the mountains some time ago, this stunning work has everything: neon and saturated colours, fantastical sylvan scenery set in the mountains, portraits of the artists, elegant lattice designs, and local fauna – including a bear! On view now at TrépanierBaer.
