OTTAWA.- Gabor Szilasi is on a constant quest to capture the ordinary people and places of the present day. He finds beauty in the banal and is interested in documenting a society that is in constant flux. Gabor Szilasi: The Eloquence of the Everyday is co-organized by the Canadian Museum of Contemporary Photography (CMCP) and the Musée d’art de Joliette. Presented by Pratt & Whitney Canada, this exhibition of 124 photographs taken by the artist over the past 50 years is on view until January 17, 2010 in the CMCP galleries of the National Gallery of Canada (NGC).
