An archive of two galleries

Past Exhibitions + Events

A record of programming across both eras of the gallery: the fifteen years Truth and Beauty spent as a storefront gallery in Vancouver, and the years since as The Commotion Digital Gallery. Different formats, same underlying commitment to contemporary photography.

2005–2020
Truth and Beauty, storefront gallery, Vancouver BC
Ongoing

Rotating solo & group exhibitions

Fifteen years of exhibitions on the gallery floor, introducing independent photographers to Vancouver audiences one show at a time, and building the roster that would later become the Print Room.

Ongoing

In-person artist talks

Openings paired with conversations between Peppa and the exhibiting photographer, held in the storefront space for whoever happened to walk in that evening.

2020–Present
The Commotion Digital Gallery
Seasonal

Digital exhibitions in the Online Viewing Room

The storefront’s exhibition rhythm carried into a new, screen-based format, refreshed each season and reaching an audience well beyond Vancouver.

Recurring

Zoom talks & instructional workshops

Programming under Culture, extending the gallery’s public talks into a format open to a wider, more distant audience than the storefront ever reached.

Recurring

The Click — the gallery’s podcast

Conversations with guests from across the photography industry, continuing the spirit of the in-person artist talk in a format anyone can listen back to.
