Double Solo Exhibition On Campus

The University of Winnipeg presents a double solo exhibition on campus Gerry Kopelow In a double solo exhibition on campus, The University of Winnipeg will present two distinct bodies of work created by Winnipeg photographer Gerry Kopelow. While Where The Buddha Walked and Forty Years Ago Today tackle different subjects and are separated in time by four decades, they are connected as integral moments in Kopelow's artistic career. Forty Years Ago Today consists of black and white shots of Canadian youth culture from 1969-70, taking viewers back to the origins of Kopelow's photographic practice. Capturing spontaneous moments of the youth hippie scene of the day, the emerging photographer worked in the tradition of W. Eugene Smith and Henri Cartier- Bresson. These images will be shown in the Hamilton Galleria and University Archives, both located in The University of Winnipeg’s Library.
