OCADU Photo Contact Show

OCAD University Photography students are papering the town with their art this spring.

Twenty-seven graduates of OCAD U’s Photography thesis program will showcase their images in this year’s prestigious Scotiabank CONTACT Photography Festival.

The CONTACT show – The Fortune of Having Been There – will be divided into three “volumes.” Each will be curated by a third-year student from OCAD U’s Criticism & Curatorial Practices program:

• Volume I: May 14 to 24 (Opening reception: May 15)
• Volume II: May 25 to June 2 (Opening reception: May 28)
• Volume III: June 3 to 10 (Opening reception: June 5)

The volumes will unfold at The Project Gallery (1109 Queen St. E.), and the curators will attend their respective opening receptions.

Four of the 27 also have works included in another CONTACT show: Revolution. All the participants in Revolution are students in OCAD U’s International Collaboration Studio course. Visit the exhibition at the Open Gallery, 49 McCaul St., from May 10 to 25.
