About Gallery TPW

Exterior view of Gallery TPW, Toronto

Gallery TPW is a leading artist-run centre dedicated to exhibiting underrepresented artistic and curatorial practices that push the boundaries of lens-based work. Since its formation in 1977, Gallery TPW (originally Toronto Photographers Workshop) has evolved alongside changes in the production, distribution and perception of photography, film and video. Their diverse roster of exhibitions, screenings, performances, commissioned writing, and public programs expands awareness of the vital role that images play in contemporary culture.

In collaboration with the Gallery TPW, the Biennial is co-presenting the work of three artists Abraham O. Oghobase, Manuel Mathieu, and Nicholas Galanin.
