Curators Gabrielle Moser and Lorna Brown will be joined by cheyanne turions for a discussion of Sites of Assembly. This exhibition features photographic works from the Belkin's permanent collection, the private collection of John O'Brian and the research archive of Marcia Crosby. Focusing on practices of photography as simultaneously art and document, the exhibition is ordered around several themes: propositions for the use of public space, whether through buildings, artworks or social activities; the surveillance of the public and performances for the camera; and the way that photographic records create potential histories for Vancouver.
