Collective exhibition<\/strong>
\nJanuary 29 to April 11, 2026<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This group exhibition brings together nine queer artists who each revisit L\u2019Androgyne, Qu\u00e9bec\u2019s first gay, lesbian, and feminist bookstore, active from 1973 to 2002. Serving simultaneously as a site for the circulation of ideas, a space for encounters, and a hub of political engagement, the bookstore played a central role in shaping queer communities at a time when visible spaces of sociability were rare and often precarious.<\/span><\/p>\n

Drawing on this legacy, the artists\u2013who never experienced L\u2019Androgyne as an active space\u2013set in motion intergenerational transmission, offering traces in which erased narratives resurface. The exhibition thus examines the persistence of queer memory and considers how a place that no longer exists continues to generate meaning, connection, and collective forms of gathering.<\/span><\/p>\n
