About

Peter Sramek is a Canadian fine art photographer/book artist. He studied at MIT under Minor White and taught photography, photobooks and handbinding at OCADU from 1976 to 2021. His diverse projects explore our connections to history and place as well as the natural world. Sequencing images brought him to the book form and making editions by hand. Dedication to community practice led to involvement in forming Gallery 44 Centre for Contemporary Photography in Toronto, the International Art Collaborations Network (INTACnet.org) and Shibagau Creek Forest Farmstead in Tamworth, ON (scff.ca). He is included in collections such as the National Gallery of Canada, the National Library of Canada, MOMA (NYC), the Art Gallery of Hamilton, the Toronto Archives, the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria and York University Library. Sramek's trade books are with Intellect Books (UK) or made available under his imprint, Photo°Sequence Books, while his handmade books are represented by Robert Wright Books.
