Between Memory & History
May 1 - 31, 2008
CONTACT 2008 examines how photography shapes our understanding of the world around us and the enduring role it plays in the preservation of individual and collective memories. A wide range of images, from the epic to the everyday, look beyond the headlines to explore private and social histories.
The festival transforms the GTA into a huge outdoor art gallery. Over 500 local, national and international artists are set to participate,
in more than 200 venues across the city.
