Utopia/Dystopia: The Photographs of Geoffrey James (English)
$10.00 CAD
Unit price perUtopia/Dystopia: The Photographs of Geoffrey James (English)
$10.00 CAD
Unit price perLori Pauli
Recognized as one of Canada's most eloquent interpreters of landscape, Geoffrey James has been making photographs since the early 1970s. His first photographs, images of gardens, express classical notions of beauty as they reveal the geometry and underlying structures of the formal garden. These small panoramic photographs evoke a quiet passion for the great landscape schemes and natural sanctuaries of the past. In his most recent work, James pays particular attention to the way in which nature and culture intersect. While not concerned with "Romantic" notions of "the ruin," his photographs do suggest a fall from grace.

Unit price perVan Gogh. De près (French)
$10.00 CAD
Unit price perCornelia Homburg, Anabelle Kienle
Joseph J. Rishel, Jennifer A. Thompson
Vincent van Gogh’s profound love of nature has often been taken for granted but has rarely been studied in detail. While he has long been admired for his dazzling use of intense colour and expressive brushwork, it is his innovative representation of nature that makes him a truly modern artist and is the focus of Van Gogh: Up Close. This exhibition, which has been organized by the National Gallery of Canada and the Philadelphia Museum of Art, concentrates on Van Gogh’s French period, from 1886 to 1890, and highlights how he conveyed his intense response to the natural world – whether this was a landscape, a still life, or the rendering of a single blade of grass – through a number of different, and often radical compositional strategies.
