R\u00c9ELLES FICTIONS \/ REAL FICTIONS <\/p>\n A group show with: <\/p>\n Curatorial team<\/strong>: Manolis Daris-Becotte, Adrien Guillet, Clara Lacasse, and Florent To Lay<\/p>\n Co-authors of the exhibition text:<\/strong> Aleksandra Kaminska (Professor at the University of Montreal) and Alanna Thain (Professor at McGill University)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We are pleased to present <\/span>R\u00c9ELLES FICTIONS \/ REAL FICTIONS<\/b>, <\/span><\/i>a collective exhibition that brings together the work of five Canadian artists in the gallery\u2019s nocturnal ambience.<\/span><\/p>\n Featuring a brand-new scenography that plunges the gallery into darkness, this first exhibition of the 2024-2025 season invites visitors into a world where reality and fiction intersect: an exploration of night, of parallel worlds, of dreamscapes and of sensations heightened by obscurity.<\/span><\/p>\n In contrast with the transparency of day, the depths of night offer a refuge for those of us seeking privacy, escapism or simply a space to dream, far from our day-to-day realities. In this space-time\u2019s generous opacity, our five senses are freed from the excess of daytime stimuli and acquire a new, heightened sensitivity. Each sensation, subtle though it may me, can thus take on a greater intensity, giving each experience a dreamlike character. <\/span><\/p>\n Rooted in a hybrid world, between reality and fiction, the works displayed in the exhibition all attest to the peculiar power of night. In this space-time-refuge, the expectations of our contemporary world (to consume, to produce) are momentarily suspended. Despite the growing pressure to remain open, awake, productive and stimulated 24\/7, night and its parallel worlds still offer some resistance to the imperatives of our time. It is this same fertile resistance, located in a dream world between reality and fiction, that the artists featured in this exhibition enact through their works.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" September 12 \u2014 December 7, 2024
