Exploring Rodney Graham: A Journey Through Art and Perception

Rodney Graham, born in 1949 in Abbotsford, British Columbia, is a pivotal figure in contemporary art, closely associated with the Vancouver School. His major survey, "A Little Thought," showcases works from the 1970s to recent projects, including innovative installations like "Camera Obscura" and the "Cinema Trilogy." These pieces reflect his exploration of nature and perception through repetition. Graham's multimedia approach, including a 5-minute film and literary interpretations, challenges audiences to view art and experience from new perspectives.
