AGO's Outsiders: American Photography and Film, 1950s - 1980s Exhibition Review
People watching is one of my favourite past times, I think it's all the traveling I did when I was younger. I used to sit in the middle of a foreign city, grab a coffee and just watch the locals going about their daily lives and making up stories in my head about them (since I usually couldn't understand a single word they were saying:) Coming up with stories for your fellow passengers is also a great way to pass the time when waiting for yet another short turned streetcar here in Toronto. I think that's why I loved
Outsiders: American Photography and Film 1950s -1980s so much.

Outsiders, the largest photo exhibition since the AGO reopened in 2008.
