Beyond the Page

Utopia/Dystopia - the exhibit currently on at the National Gallery of Canada - is a retrospective of the photography of Geoffrey James. It explores all facets of the artist�s landscapes, from Europe�s most famous gardens to the largest open-pit asbestos mine in the Western hemisphere. Witness his discovery of poetry and irony in both the planned landscapes from the past and in the unintentional landscapes of our contemporary urban environments. Utopia/Dystopia is on until October 19, but you can always take a piece of it home with you with the beautiful exhibit catalogue.
