Norman Fox: Camera Crossing

April 1 - May 1, 2022

Opening reception on Saturday April 2 from 3 - 5pm 

​

Norman Fox was born in Calgary, grew up in Port Coquitlam and in 1980, moved to East Vancouver. 

His images are real, in the moment, and command your attention. 

​

From Norman:

"My first experience as an artist was at the age of 47, on the heels of significant life changes.

For myself, being an artist meant first learning how to use a camera. Without formal schooling, living on the DTES, I relied on library books, documentaries, and other internet resources to learn more from my influences at the time: Henri Cartier-Bresson, Dianne Arbus, and local photographers Jeff Wall and Fred Hertzog.

​

My practical experience was grown from three years of daily walks through East Vancouver and the DTES, learning the mechanics of a camera through trial and error."

​

This is Norman's first gallery exhibition.
