NEW! Street Signs and Telephone Wires: A Photo Walk

This workshop is part in-class lecture and part guided photo walk exploring vernacular architecture, signage and urban ephemera of the streets of Toronto. This workshop will explore the reoccurring visual motifs of street signs, telephone wires, neon and typographic details embedded in the city that define the works of seminal street photographers such as Walker Evans, Lee Freidlander, Steven Shore, William Eggleston and others. Students will receive hands-on feedback during the shooting process, helping with technical questions along practical and poetics use of light and space.

Gallery 44 acknowledges that it is situated on stolen land. On the ancestral and traditional territories of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, the Haudenosaunee, the Anishinaabe and the Huron-Wendat, who are the original owners and custodians of this land that they continue to inhabit today.

Acknowledging the land on which we work and create is an important first step towards truth and reconciliation, however, much more needs to be done by settlers, by our government, and by us as arts practitioners to educate ourselves and others, and to endeavor to end ongoing colonial violence.

During this global pandemic, it is important to acknowledge that Indigenous communities in Canada continue to live under increasingly inequitable conditions.
