About

Gallery 881 excited to announce the opening of our 2023 - 2024 season. Join us during BC Culture Days for Hank Bull's "Standing Forms" exhibition! The opening reception and record launch take place on September 16, 2023 from 2 - 5pm at Gallery 881.

Hank Bull has been active on the Vancouver art scene since the early 1970s. He was an early member of the Western Front, where he explored radio art, cabaret performance, shadow theatre, and collaborative production of all kinds. A participant in global art networks since the 1980s, he was an early adopter of telecommunications technology, contributed to the development of artist-directed economies of exchange and produced numerous international projects. Throughout a hybrid career as artist/curator/administrator/advocate, he has continued to make art in a range of media, including painting, photography, video, music and sound. He was born at Moh’kins’tsis, Calgary, and lives with gratitude on the traditional and unceded territory of the xwməθkwəy̓əm Musqueam and Tsleil-Waututh Nations, Vancouver. Hank Bull is represented by the Stephen Bulger Gallery, Toronto.

Gallery 881 is a lens-based art hub promoting the photographic arts through exhibitions, art sales, public events, and other visual art based programming. We offer a selection of artwork available for purchase as well as freshly curated flat file art drawers and the Book Zine Wall - a library of independently produced publications. Gallery 881 is sponsored by PrintMaker Studio, a fine art printer and finisher of exceptional quality printed artwork.

Gallery 881 and PrintMaker Studio operate on the unceded traditional territories of the Coast Salish xʷməθkʷəy̓əm, Sḵwx̱wú7mesh, and Sel̓íl̓witulh Nations.
