…Everything Remains Raw: Photographing Toronto’s Hip Hop Culture from Analogue to Digital, McMichael Canadian Art Collection - Kleinburg, ON

 

Long & McQuade is thrilled to be a promotional partner for the McMichael Canadian Art Collection’s exhibition …Everything Remains Raw: Photographing Toronto’s Hip Hop Culture from Analogue to Digital.

Archival photographs act as visual representations of hip hop culture in Canada and guide this exhibition's consideration of the evolution and longevity of this now global cultural phenomenon.

Works by Toronto-based photographers in the 1990s and early 2000s—many of which have never been publicly displayed—capture the growth, vibrancy, creativity, and influence of the hip hop scene that Toronto has fostered since the 1980s.

To complement this exhibition, the McMichael presents the Signature Performance Series: Acoustic Conversations, which intertwine conversations and a live performance to provide an in-depth look at the development of the hip hop scene in Toronto. Featured artists include Fresh Kils, Michie Mee and Maestro Fresh-Wes. Click here for the full schedule.
