Summary:
Published in Fall 1982 by the Canadian Centre for Photography and Film, New Canadian Photography / La Nouvelle Photographie Canadienne (Image Nation 26) serves as the 26th and final issue of the influential Canadian photography periodical Image Nation. Presented with bilingual English and French texts across 63 pages, this volume acts as a contemporary showcase for emerging and established Canadian photographers working in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
Featuring work by 18 diverse artists—including Phil Bergerson, David Buchan, Francis Coutellier, Eldon Garnet, Lorraine Gilbert, Rafael Goldchain, Alison Rossiter, Jayce Salloum, and George Whiteside—the issue highlights a dynamic shift toward conceptual art, experimental staging, personal identity, and narrative photojournalism. By compiling varied artistic visions from across the country, the final installment of Image Nation captures a pivotal transition period in Canadian photography as it evolved toward broader international recognition and post-modern practice.
