The Expo Celebration The Official Retrospective Book : Expo 86, the 1986 World Exposition, Vancouver, British Columbia, May 2-October 13, 1986
Derik Murray
This beautifully produced commemorative volume serves as the official retrospective of EXPO 86, the 1986 World Exposition held in Vancouver, British Columbia. Dedicated to the people of British Columbia and to wheelchair athlete Rick Hansen's Man in Motion World Tour, the book captures the spirit of an event centered on the themes of transportation and communication. Across 224 pages, this large-format coffee table book features an extensive anthology of photography—much of it captured via Kodak film—that documents the fair's various international pavilions, royal visitors, and celebrities. It provides a detailed visual record of the 165-day celebration, highlighting the diverse cultures and innovative spirit that transformed Vancouver into a global stage during the summer of 1986.
