This publication celebrates fifty years of collecting photographs at the National Gallery of Canada. In 1967 when the collection was established the photography market was in its infancy and the collection reflects the availability of in depth collections of work by some of the forefathers of the medium such as Charles Nègre, William Henry Fox Talbot, Gustave Le Gray and Roger Fenton among others. Within a few short years of starting to build the collection the science of photographic preservation and conservation was making remarkable strides and influencing the acquisition and exhibition of photographs in museums. This publication celebrates the collecting of photographs, the historical and art historical context of their making and the deepening of our understanding of their physical nature. 336 pp. 164 artists, such as: Benoit Aquin; Diane Arbus; Eugène Atget; Nicolas Baier; Edouard Baldus; 319 colour illustrations Brassaï; Julia Margaret Cameron; Henri Cartier-Bresson; Lynne Cohen; Benjamin John Dancer; hardcover Walker Evans; Robert Frank; Lee Friedlander; Isabelle Hayeur; Arnaud Maggs; Robert French language Mapplethorpe; John Max; Lisette Model; Eadweard Muybridge; Charles Nègre; William McFarlane ISBN 978-88-7439-807-2 Notman; Marc Ruwedel; Jospeph Sudek; William Henry Fox Talbot; vernacular and news english Language photographs by unknown photographers will also be included.

CANADIAN PHOTOGRAPHY MAGAZINES 1970–1990 Reconsidering a History of Photography in Print
Notes 1 For a good overview of photographic art in Canada, see Martha Langford, “A Short History of Photography, 1900–2000,” in Brian Foss, Anne Whitelaw and Sandra Paikowsky eds., The Visual Arts in Canada: The Twentieth Century (Don Mills, ON: Oxford University Press, 2010), 279– 311. 2 See especially Martha Langford, “Introduction,” in Contemporary Canadian Photography from the Collection of the National Film Board (Edmonton, Alta: Hurtig Publishers, 1984), 7–16. 3 For an inciteful application of the notion of “field of art” to photography, specifically in 1970s Montreal, see Lise Lamarche, “La photographie par la bande. Notes de recherche à partir des expositions collectives de photographie à Montreal (et un peu ailleurs) entre 1970 et 1980,” in Francine Couture ed., Exposer l’art contemporain du Québec. Discours d’intention et d’accompagnement (Montreeal: Centre de diffusion 3D, 2003), 221–265. 4 The first issue of Impressions was printed in Toronto in March 1970. The original editors were John Prendergrast and John F. Philips, co-founder of the Baldwin Street Gallery of Photography, Toronto. Subsequent co-editors would include Shin Sugino and Isaac Applebaum. The magazine aimed to showcase photographers whose work is “too personal to find an automatic commercial market.” In October 1970, the first issue of Image Nation appeared in Toronto. Edited variously by David Hlynsky, Fletcher Starbuck and others, it succeeded the Rochdale College Image Nation, published in 1969–1970 by a printing collective based at the short-lived “alternative” Rochdale College, Toronto. Image Nation was aimed primarily at photographic artists active within the parallel gallery network across Canada.
