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 doesn't officially start until Saturday, but that doesn't mean there isn't a glut of openings related to it tonight.

This exhibition at the Japan Society through June 13 was a roaring success when shown in London last Spring, and if it’s not drawing equal crowds in New York that’s because the Japan Society is at least four avenues further East than the crowds are willing to gather. It’s New York’s loss
