The Estate of Fred Herzog
April 1, 2023 - April 29, 2023
No other artist has chronicled Vancouver’s urban life as comprehensively and with such sustained insight as Herzog. He purchased his first camera in Germany at the age of 21, a Kodak Retina 1, which he knew about from his father who worked at Kodak during the war. Some of Herzog’s earliest photographs in Vancouver were taken on the Retina 1, but this model had a slow lens speed and did not contain a rangefinder and consequently, he favoured using the Lecia C for street photography as it was small and pocketable. He used different lenses while working in low light and crowded locations, all the while producing images that achieve a rare balance of composition and spontaneity. Bringing together early black and white images from the artist’s archive and his pioneering colour street photography, of Time and Place celebrates Fred Herzog’s understanding of the medium combined with the ability of photography to show “how you see and how you think”.
