Fred Herzog: Selected Works

After immigrating to Canada in 1952, Fred Herzog gravitated toward the medium of colour photography for observing everyday life, long before it was recognized as a documentary or artistic style. Herzog was especially interested in pictures that included a human presence, and while his photographs are impeccably composed, he avoided the escape into formalist occupations. Through his committed documentation of Vancouver, he has become one of the city’s most compelling visual narrators, telling the story of the place, the culture, and the people who live there. A special selection of works will be on view for Capture, highlighting the exceptional colour and intensity of Herzog’s street photography and his keen observational eye.
