Subtitled Edmonton Entrances and Suburban Landscapes, the show features two series of photographs, undertaken by Hohn in the 1970s, of Edmonton’s domestic architecture. The first records, in rich colour and with compelling detail, the doorways of fieldstone and stucco bungalows common to the city in the 1940s and ’50s, revealing lively elements of vernacular design. The second series, shot in black and white, takes the city’s growing suburbs as its subject, expressing a quite different design aesthetic.
