Artist Exhibition Talk and Photowalk with Goran Basarić

Join Gallery 881 and Beau Photo for an exhibition tour of City Pastoral: Leisure time in the Liminal City, and artist’s talk, followed by a photo walk with Goran Basarić and Beau Photo. The photo walk will invite photographers to investigate the city and its spaces around Gallery 881.

Begun more than three decades ago and continuing to this day, City Pastoral captures an ever-evolving portrait of life along the city’s shoreline. With his vintage Soviet Horizont analog camera, Basarić renders leisure as “extravagant normalcy,” revealing the poetic tension between urban habit and expansive horizon.

The exhibition includes 11 finished works, along with panoramic photographs taken between 2000 and 2024. Seen together, they affirm Basarić’s ongoing vision: to capture the fleeting yet enduring rhythms of life along Vancouver’s liminal threshold—a collective playground where the city meets the sea.
