Each year, the Art Gallery of Ontario mounts The Grange Prize Exhibition, where the public can view works by each of the four shortlisted artists and vote for their choice to win the Prize. In 2012, a concurrent exhibition will be held at Canada House in London, UK, featuring additional work by each artist. The exhibitions are curated by Sophie Hackett, Lead Juror and Assistant Curator, Photography at the AGO.
This year’s nominated artists share a fascination with the world of images that surround, and often bombard, us every day. Taking on everything from fashion editorial and sports photography to found objects and crime-scene documentation, by appropriating existing images, placing familiar genres in new contexts, and pushing the photographic print into the three-dimensional realm, these nominees reinvigorate our relationship with photography.
Exhibition at the AGO September 5, 2012 - January 6, 2013
