Pierre-François Ouellette art contemporain is proud to announce an upcoming exhibition of photographs by Phyllis Lambert, curated by Adad Hannah. The exhibition coincides with the launch of the book observation is a constant that underlies all approaches, published by Lars Müller Publishers. The photo will be on display at the gallery from April 15 to May 20, 2023.
Curiosity is a constant in the work of Phyllis Lambert, who has devoted her career to studying and engaging with the changing conditions of urban landscapes. For decades, the architect and founder of the Canadian Centre for Architecture CCA has observed the built environment through the lens of a camera. Her keen perception becomes evident in this collection of personal photographs, taken over several decades and shown here for the first time. Using her camera as a notebook, Lambert turns observation into a quest to understand and reveal what might otherwise remain overlooked.
