SUMMARY:CUAG: Outside These Walls: Photographs by Yannick Anton & David Ofori Zapparoli
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition brings together photographic works by Toronto-based artists Yannick Anton and David Ofori Zapparoli whose respective imagery shares a community-focused and collaborative approach to documenting urban life and its people. Informed by a strong social realist approach, Zapparoli has represented the visual history of Canadian cities for over thirty years. Until 1999, he had focused on the public housing development of Regent Park, putting a human face on the stigmatized and transitional community of which he had been a part of since his teens. Anton’s candid and energetic photographs draw stylistic inspiration from the youthful, street, fashion, music, and queer-positive cultures that he captures. Together both artists’ compelling works present unique and unapologetic insights into diverse landscapes and lives, addressing the systemic barriers that they expose and refute, while re-imagining regimes of the image away from fixed inscriptions of race, gender, class, and corporeality.
