Drawn from the collection of the National Gallery of Canada, the exhibition Camera and the City explored street photography. According to Stéphanie Yvette Hornstein, however, it did little to renew the way the subject is approached. Her review highlights a key concern—the narrative is “MoMA-centric,” in her view—but also underscores some of the exhibition’s strengths, particularly the conceptual photography section, featuring artists such as Susan Dobson, Melvin Charney, VALIE EXPORT, and others whose work exposes the shortcomings and contradictions of urban space.
