Watch as the Toronto Image Works team works with our founder, Edward Burtynsky on producing his solo Exhibition, The Great Acceleration. From Proofing to final finishes, we expertly print, laminate. mount and frame these amazing images. @edwardburtynsky
The Great Acceleration
International Center of Photography, NYC
Jun 19, 2025 - Sep 28, 2025
Edward Burtynsky’s first solo institutional exhibition in New York City in over twenty years, reveals the depth of Burtynsky’s investigation into the human alteration of natural landscapes around the world, showing their present fragility and enduring beauty in equal measure. @icp
Curated by David Campany, Creative Director at ICP, this retrospective exhibition will present over seventy photographs, including many of Burtynsky’s landmark images, some of which have never previously been shown, along with three ultra high-resolution murals. The exhibition will also include a visual and narrative timeline of Burtynsky’s creative life. Intentionally scheduled to extend through Climate Week NYC in September 2025, The Great Acceleration will serve not only as an urgent call for action, but will also give visitors the opportunity to appreciate the sublimity that remains in the landscape, while also deepening our understanding of the challenges that confront us today. In this way, The Great Acceleration upholds ICP’s long-standing and core commitment to present concerned photography that can inspire new audiences.

Mark your calendars for: Rita Leistner: The Tree Planters
July 5, 2025 – January 5, 2026
About the exhibition:
The Tree Planters is a striking photographic series by award-winning Canadian photographer Rita Leistner. Through large-scale, painterly portraits captured in real-time, Leistner documents the gruelling and heroic labour of professional tree planters in British Columbia. Her work explores themes of human endurance, environmental stewardship, and Canada’s evolving relationship with its forests.
Between 2016 and 2019, Leistner embedded herself off-grid with planting crews, living for months at a time in remote camps. Immersed in the physically demanding world of seasonal tree planting, she documented workers as they planted thousands of saplings each day across the rugged, clear-cut terrain. Her photographs reveal both the intensity of the labour and the resilience of the planters, transforming them into luminous, almost mythic figures.
Using dramatic lighting and dynamic compositions, Leistner elevates scenes of physical toil into compelling visual tributes—portraits that highlight the planters’ deep, often spiritual connection to the land. Having planted more than half a million trees herself, Leistner brings a rare, firsthand understanding and deep reverence to her subject.
The Tree Planters stands as a tribute to the generations of Canadians who have reshaped the nation’s geography and contributed to its cultural identity—one tree at a time.
Rita is represented by the Stephen Bulger Gallery in Toronto. @stephenbulgergallery

About Rob:
I bought my first camera at a pawnshop in downtown Toronto on a whim. Who knew that photography would be my magic carpet ride into a breathtaking life of constant adventure and creativity? I sure didn’t. But, that’s exactly what’s happened as I’ve enjoyed the good fortune of working with wonderful people from all walks of life in over 140 countries, and in all 50 states. The entire planet is my studio.

We love the Fine Art Metallic paper choice for these captivating images by Denis Leclerc. @denisleclerc Printed on Hahnemühle Photo Rag Metallic paper.
Denis offers an Exclusively Unique Edition which is produced at Toronto Image Works. Unlike traditional editions, it will never be reproduced.
Denis Leclerc is a contemporary digital artist based in Toronto. He believes abstract art reveals what we cannot name. Because of this, his images ask the viewer to pause and feel. Above all, his goal is to create presence—not only something seen, but something remembered.

About REFLECTION:
This work is about visibility. It’s about love, resilience, and the transformative power of representation.
The images in REFLECTION reveal sensual, vulnerable, and intimate moments—mostly shared in the studio with friends.
This show is not just a reflection of the past,
it’s a gift to the present and a seed for the future.

It was our pleasure to work closely with Neeko Paluzzi on a special full edition run for his series “Polari” (ongoing). Printed as Chromogenic Matte Prints (AKA C-Prints) These large, and small edition prints were all printed on the same run for consistency.
About Neeko:
I am a lens-based artist and language educator who uses translation theories to create intertextual installations. From music to literature, I am interested in translating texts—both visual and non-visual—into my own photographic language, with my queer body at the center of these visual translations.

Watch as we print, laminate and mount these very large, wonderful, portraits by Jason Van Bruggen. @jasonvanbruggen
You can see them in person during his CONTACT show “80 FACES OF FREEDOM” showing at the Small Arms Inspection Building from May 13, 2025 – May 14, 2026 @contactphoto #smallarmsinspectionbuilding
About the exhibition:
To commemorate the 80th Anniversary of the Liberation of the Netherlands, Jason van Bruggen photographed and interviewed 80 Dutch survivors of the Second World War.
Together their stories weave together a complex history of what occupation meant for the Dutch, incorporating memories of those who survived and those who perished. Both the artist’s father and mother lived through this period, and he was raised on their stories.
Printed as Inkjet Glossy, with a matte laminate, mounted to 1/2 black Gator.

It was our pleasure to present Maryn Western with the Toronto Image Works sponsored award on Opening Night for her Exhibition: Blood, Lead, and Tears. @photosbymaryn
Blood, Lead, and Tears is a multimedia installation responding to the 2024 study, “Tampons as a source of exposure to metalloids” by Jenni A. Shearston, which found that most well-known tampon brands had unsafe concentrations of toxic heavy metals (such as lead, cadmium, and arsenic). Due to the absorptive tissue within the vagina, these metals can directly enter the body’s bloodstream, potentially causing great harm.
To explore this concept, I photographed a wide range of menstruating subjects who have used tampons on Polaroid film, degrading their image within chemical concentrations that reflect the amount of chemistry they have been exposed to from these products. Through the physical degradation of the portrait standing in for the subject’s body, one can investigate how the exposure to heavy metals within tampons has degraded a variety of menstruating bodies over the course of their lives, and how it can be visually represented.
This project aims to explore themes of both externally and internally driven misogyny, as well as the lack of education and respect for the menstruating body that is still prevalent. Menstruation is a process that affects approximately 50% of the population, yet the subject is considered taboo and disgusting, despite being a normal bodily function. Tampons have been marketed as the best option for menstruation, but they have been produced without proper warnings, exposing people to harm for years without acknowledgement or attempts to create a safer product.
Congrats to all the graduating students in this year’s Exhibition.
