Have you ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes in preparation for an exhibition at the National Gallery of Canada? Since 2013, as part of an ongoing partnership between Library and Archives Canada (LAC) and the National Gallery, items from LAC’s collection are being exhibited on the walls of the National Gallery. In this episode we speak to LAC curator Jennifer Roger and Head Conservator of Photographic Materials Tania Passafiume, about the work that went into the latest collaboration, which features 15 rare daguerreotypes dating back to the very beginnings of photography.
