Fountain Gallery

For Contact 2008, Fountain is holding a fringe Contact exhibition with its resident photographer Fabrice Arfi along with the Canadian Opera Company's violinist; Sandy Baron. Fabrice is a Franco-British photographer whose work spans 15 years and three continents and which documents various encounters with culture art and architecture.

Fabrice's work has been exhibited and sold in the UK and the US and he was one of the featured artists in Portugal for Visei European City of Culture 2002.

More recently Arfi's work has been featured at Praxis and Scratch Gallery in Toronto and he is also an active member of Gallery 44, at 401 Richmond.  Fabrice's architectural photography seems somewhat  haunted by a certain atmospheric sense reminiscent of 1930's and 40's cinema. His latest and more exclusive work is printed on batches of vintage photographic paper which gives each print a distinctive and unique quality where the image seems somehow imbedded into the paper.
