C Y f t S t l* a s P Gregory Salzman discusses the photographs in the exhibition in the Oakville Galleries at Centennial Square, titled Patrick Faigenbaum , New a nd R ecent Photographs. Patrick Faigenbaum to s tTM P ils a His first exhibition in Canada M ic h e lle Collins SPECIAL TO THE BEAVER Oakville Galleries has a first in Canada. Its gallery at Centennial Square is hosting the work of Parisian photographer Patrick Faigenbaum, who is best known for his black-and-white documentary photographs, which pay a lot o f attention to composition, position and tonal range. Consequently, his highly composed treatment o f a subject can hinder a view er's ability to connect and draw emotion from the photographs. Faigenbaum 's Oakville exhibition is comprised o f pic tures from each stage of his career, including recent work in colour. Guest curator Gregory Salzman discussed Faigenbaum's work to an intimate audience of about 20 last week. Salz man is a well established curator with articles appearing in Toronto-based architectural publications. He described Faigenbaum as a physical and emotional artist whose work is largely autobiographical. The European photographer first achieved recognition for his work with the Italian aristocracy whom he pho tographed from 1985 to 1987. These pictures are distinctive for their use of the subjects' environments. "Placement of people is what makes the picture. Light moves throughout the spaces leading to a registration of movement through the picture," Salzman said of the work. `T here is a feeling of deep time when viewing this work." Faigenbaum 's work with the Italians paid particular detail to composition, rendering none of them spontaneous or candid. Salzman, however, pointed out that, although the photographs are rigid in their placement, there is still a sense of contact with the people in them. Prague was also used as a focal point for what Salzman considers some of Faigenbaum's best work. "Prague was a city he didn't know. Without something specific to photo graph, his work was much more cohesive. There is a heav iness and vertical emphasis in a lot of his pictures there." Faigenbaum has begun to incorporate colour into his more recent work, and has also found new direction by tak ing the focus off the centre and placing it on the periphery of his photographs, said Salzman. And, he added, Faigenbaum finally felt that he was able to photograph his own city after 15 years of work. Prior to this time the photographer felt that he was too close to Paris to photograph it objectively. Faigenbaum's work will continue in Oakville Galleries at Centennial Square, 120 Navy St., until Nov. 22nd. The gallery is open Tuesdays to Thursdays from noon to 9 p.m., Fridays from noon to 5 p.m., Saturdays from 10 a.m., to 5 p.m., and Sundays from 1 to 5 p.m. Admission is free.
