The ROM’s Institute for Contemporary Culture hosts Edward Burtynsky: Oil until July 3, 2011. This provocative and controversial exhibit features fifty-three large-format photographs by Canadian Edward Burtynsky, many of which were taken in the Alberta Oil Sands. Burtynsky’s stunning images focus on Extraction and Refinement, Transportation and Motor Culture, and The End of Oil.

Edward Burtynsky: Oil is accessible during the Museum’s regular operating hours. Today the ROM is open from 10am until 5:30pm. Admission for adults is $24. For more information, go to the ROM’s website.
