Positive Negative, an artist-run gallery on Chinatown’s Columbia block, packs the room (and often the sidewalk out front) every month with clever shows that highlight local and international art and design talent—tonight’s opening will be no exception.
Lost in the City is a collection of photographs that portray the experience of navigating life in Canadian cities. Curated by Ben Knight, creator of DontLook printshop, with the help of local photographer Lauren Zbarsky, the show features ten artists from Vancouver and Victoria who explore issues of identity, control, knowledge, and reality within the chaos of a metropolis.
For Knight, it’s all in the details. He screen-printed each piece by hand onto a custom panel of sealed mahogany wood; each will be available for only $60.
Lost in the City opens tonight, Thursday, March 21, with a party at 7:00 PM (all are welcome), and runs until April 6.
