Geoffrey James in Kitchener

Photographer Geoffrey James joins artists Kelly Richardson, Jennifer Stead and Alex Cameron in a series of recently opened landscape exhibitions on view at the Kitchener-Waterloo Art Gallery. For his exhibition, James presents Field Notes, a new set of images extending the interest in agrarian landscape that has shaped his photographs of parks and gardens over the past 30 years. In the series, James shows pasture lands located at the edge of Kitchener-Waterloo that lie on the cusp of dramatic development transformations. The U.K.-based Richardson, whose work was recently acquired by the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in Washington, D.C., also presents a two-channel video projection addressing development issues as well as another work: Exiles of the Shattered Star, which is set in the English countryside. (101 Queen St. N., Kitchener, ON.)
