[Spring 2002] Pierre-Francois Ouellette Art Contemporain, Montreal 12 Jan.–16 Feb. 2002 Marc Audette’s video and photography installation Écran is a unique juncture of various incompossibilities: the electronic media sphere of the video, digitally generated compositions, mechanically produced photographs, and the artist’s hands that were involved in the print development process.

Authors: Jacques Doyon

[Winter 2001-2002] by Jacques Doyon The works in this issue will seem, at first glance, diametrically opposed to each other.
