Julian Cox, Deputy Director and Chief Curator, the Art Gallery of Ontario will discuss Ruth-Marion Baruch and her unique place in photo history and curating her work into the 2017 exhibition: The Summer of Love Experience: Art, Fashion, and Rock & Roll.
Cox will also discuss his recent exhibition, Leonard Cohen: Everybody Knows, which originated at the Art Gallery of Ontario and is now scheduled for multiple sites in Europe.
This event is in collaboration with the current exhibition at The Breman – Ruth-Marion Baruch – Retrospective and Lumière Gallery.
Ruth-Marion Baruch (1922-1997) was a visionary photographer best known for her poignant and deeply empathetic portrayals of various communities in San Francisco during the 1960s. Her works, alongside her husband Pirkle Jones (1914-2009), capture the essence of social movements and everyday life, making her a pivotal figure in the vaunted “California School of Photography.”
