This Saturday, join us to share in FotoFilmic's conversation on the state and future of analogue and film-based photographic practices in the digital age. . At 2PM at #BAFGallery, @fotofilmic artists Matthew Finley and Marisa Chafetz will appear in dialogue with curators Virginie Lamarche and Bastien Desfriches Doria to discuss the theoretical framework behind FotoFilmic's global vision and mandate, and advocating for the fundamental artistic ethos and material practices that the featured photographers engage with. . Find more information at the link in our bio - we hope to see you there!
Next time you're near Cambie and Broadway, make sure to keep an eye out for 'Proving Ground, Nevada, Vancouver', BAF and @capturephotofest's newest public installation from @erinsiddall. . For this, which will be installed through September 2018, Siddall photographed vintage uranium glassware both in her Vancouver studio and at a former nuclear testing site near Las Vegas, Nevada. . If you come across the piece, snap a picture and tag @burrardarts and @capturephotofest. . . . . . #art #artist #artists #artistsoninstagram #artoftheday #contemporaryart #contemporaryarts #vancouverart #vancouverartist #canadianart #canadianartist #artnews #artscene #artisticcommunity #juxtapoz #hifructose #hyperallergic #ignant #thejealouscurator #museum #artmuseum #gallery #artgallery #capturefest #erinsiddall #publicart #streetart #mural
'When the sun rises, we keep the fire aflame', @karenzalamea's current #BAFGallery show, is marked by attentiveness to the material surface - the topographical 'skin' of landscape. . . . . . #art #artist #artists #artistsoninstagram #artoftheday #contemporaryart #contemporaryarts #vancouverart #vancouverartist #canadianart #canadianartist #artnews #juxtapoz #hifructose #hyperallergic #ignant #thejealouscurator #museum #gallery #capturefest #landscapephotography #photography #karenzalamea

In 'Doomsday Counter' and its accompanying public installation 'Proving Ground, Nevada, Vancouver', @erinsiddall focuses on the radiant and fragile materiality of uranium glass dishware. In the photographic and sculptural works, they become otherworldly reminders of the precariousness of peace and the innocent desire for domestic embellishment they once signalled. . . . . . #art #artist #artists #artoftheday #contemporaryart #vancouverart #vancouverartist #canadianart #canadianartist #artnews #artscene #artisticcommunity #juxtapoz #hifructose #hyperallergic #ignant #thejealouscurator #museum #artmuseum #gallery #artgallery #erinsiddall #capturefest #uraniumglass #publicart #photography
