Authors: Jennifer Couëlle | Artists: Geoffrey James

[Fall 1996] Centre international d’art contemporain de Montréal May 2–July 28, 1996 From Homer’s Odyssey to Kerouac’s On the Road and beyond, travel has provided inspiration for countless tales. Part of the attraction lies in breaking boundaries, in widening the realm of the imaginary. Then there is what Voltaire’s nomadic characters Candide and Cacambo recognized […]

[Summer 1996] Galerie Dazibao, Montreal April 6–May 5, 1996 Issues of ethnic, racial, and gender identity have been riding high on the “top ten” of exhibition themes for quite some time now.

Authors: Jennifer Couëlle | Artists: Simon Glass

[Spring 1996] Galerie Vox, Montreal January 11–February 11, 1996 With his recent exhibition Yahweh!, Toronto-based photographer Simon Glass virtually transforms the rather small and narrow space of Galerie Vox into a shrine bringing to mind, of course, the perennial analogy between museums and cathedrals or, in this case, between gallery and temple. Four different groups […]

Authors: Jennifer Couëlle | Artists: Doreen Lindsay

[Winter 1995-1996] Espace Trois, Saidye Bronfman Centre for the Arts, Montreal October 18-31, 1995 With the blatant exception of the human figure, it would be difficult to outweigh nature on the artistic agenda of recurring muses.

[Summer 1995] Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal January 27 to April 23, 1995 Expectations arc necessarily high for internationally recognized artists like Angela Grauerholz.
