One Month show with Tony Fouhse
May 1 - 31
Vernisage Friday May 1/ 7 - 10pm
USER: Women
The work Tony Fouhse is showing at Gallery La Petite Mort is a
continuation of the shooting he's done at the corner of Cumberland
and Murray Streets, one of the spots in Ottawa where crack addicts
congregate.
The new work, titled: "USER: Women", is a series of large format,
close-up photographs of some of the women addicts that congregate
on that corner.
These photographs are much more confronational and stripped
down than his previous work there. They show the face, rather
than the feel, of that corner. The women look into the lens and
allow you, the viewer, to look straight back at them, to look into
their eyes and make up your own mind.
