Vitality: Fred Herzog Photographs In and Around Chinatown
Curated by Carol Lee

Equinox Gallery presents a solo exhibition of street photographs by Fred Herzog, chronicling  the street life of Vancouver’s Chinatown and surrounding neighbourhoods in the 1950s and 1960s. Guest-curated by Carol Lee, co-founder and Chair of the Vancouver Chinatown Foundation and committed advocate for the revitalization of Chinatown and the Downtown Eastside, the works in this exhibition highlight the area’s history of vibrant street life, businesses and social centres. As a champion of Chinatown’s resilience and with deep knowledge of its past, Lee’s engagement with Herzog’s photographs offers a renewed appreciation for his artistic vision while emphasizing the significant cultural heritage in our city.

The exhibition will be open to the public through May 10th. For more information or to request a list of available works, please contact the gallery at info@equinoxgallery.com

Angela Teng
Colourwork

Equinox Gallery presents Angela Teng: Colourwork, a solo exhibition of paintings for the Pacific Gallery at the Fairmont Pacific Rim.

Teng (b. 1979) has been acknowledged nationwide for her experimentation with the medium of paint, particularly her works made by crocheting paint strings. After squeezing and drying lengths of different coloured paints into thin strips that approximate yarn, Teng uses a single hook to crochet the paint into rectangular and square compositions. Her works elicit a broad range of references, from the colourful, commonplace Afghan throw to the geometric abstraction of high modernism, all while implicating the artistic labour of women that has typically earned the distinction of “craft” rather than “art”.
