This three day workshop (May 19 - 21, 2024) hosted by Gallery 881 features an exciting opportunity to learn from photographer, filmmaker, and former ICP instructor Richard Sandler. The workshop will focus on guiding students in their photography practice and challenge them to think critically about their work and the medium. Through one on one coaching by Sandler, individual and group discussion and critique, this workshop will have both practical and theoretical components all aimed at enabling students to create amazing street photography of their own. Sandler will coach students in one on one segments while out photographing in Vancouver’s downtown core. Conversation, dialogue and opportunities for questions will push students to consider and properly utilize influences, make selections and will be challenged by critique and group discussions lead by Sandler. The Gallery 881 curator and visual artist John Goldsmith will also actively participate each day offering insights based on his experience as a street photographer, fine art printer, and gallerist. At the end of the workshop students will have photographed and selected one 12x18” photograph to be printed by PrintMaker Studio. This will include 1:1 mentorship in fine art printing and finishing techniques.
The cost is $1350 CAD plus tax. Attendance is strictly limited to 8 participants. Please feel free to email any questions or concerns to info@gallery881.com.
Each student will receive a 12x18” archival pigment print on Canson Infinity media of their own artwork which will be produced on the last day of the workshop by PrintMaker Studio, our in-house Canson Infinity Certified Print Lab. We are grateful to our sponsors including PrintMaker Studio and Canson Infinity.
