John Gollings combines his joint interests in photography and architecture to explore the cultural construction of social spaces. Well-known for his documentation of new buildings and cityscapes, this Monash Gallery of Art touring exhibition, curated by Stephen Zagala, situates these images within the broader context of his photographic practice. Alongside his commercial work, Gollings has always engaged in projects concerned with architectural history and heritage. This includes photographs of iconic modernist buildings, ancient sites of spiritual significance and the ruins of abandoned cities.
