I always think of it as the month of emeralds, and the emerald is truly an appropriate birthstone for May.

George Whiteside, who's best known as one of Canada's foremost fashion photographers, was one of the founders of the artist-run centre YYZ, and has returned to those roots at One800, a gallery he opened a couple of months ago . For Contact, he's showing The Internationalists, a series of polaroids taken of street posters of foundational communist leaders; long since consigned to the dustbin of history, their images linger in ever-greater decay. Valentine, meanwhile, shows a project centred on Canadian prairie revolutionary Louis Riel.

Contact does an admirable job each year of helping make clear that photography isn't just a privileged practice of the first world, taking the rest of the planet as grist for its image mill — not anymore, anyway, or at least, not as much; that's another story all by itself, I'm afraid — but the advent of more accessible technologies has meant a blossoming practice in places where picture-making wasn't a hobby, but a luxury.
