Consisting of 27 works, this event highlights the dynamism and versatility of Galerie B-312, which has become, over time, a reference on the Montréal’s contemporary art scene. 

Every year, Galerie B-312 invites you to support the activities of the centre by acquiring a work of art. Thus, you directly support the dissemination, recognition and the impact of current artistic practices.

Working with digital video and computer-generated video animation, Yam Lau constructs virtual spaces in which the elements intertwine and multiply in a fluid way. In Rehearsal, the point of view, which is a creation of a digital imaging software, is constantly changing.

The spaces build by Véronique Chagnon-Côté recall certain traditional notions of painting by their drawing lines perpective. However, she retains abstraction techniques such as flat tint, pattern and hard-edge cutting to explore painting materiality. 

Jana Winderen's work reveals the complexity and strangeness of the oceanic sound universe, an area often overlooked by the scientific community. Through blind sound recording, the artist creates auditory experiences that would be difficult – if not impossible – to achieve.

Catherine Béchard and Sabin Hudon’s works diverge familiar shapes by the incorporation of mechanical movements or the production of unexpected sounds. The objects used in the installation, refer to experiences or cultural knowledge, evoking specific images.

Jennifer Campbell’s artistic practice engages her in actions that she documents through photography or videography. The five works depict the artist in action on a natural site with interventions that suddenly and radically disrupt and transform the site.

Olivia Boudreau’s work is remarkable for having combined the respective temporalities of performance and videography. She starts from the sequence-shot, the isochrony between the filmed time, the point of view, the time that the video is watched later.

Lise Boisseau avoids the stretcher and colours and chooses to work with ink on paper (particularly film paper), employing Chinese calligraphy techniques.The choice of such a mode of tracing, fragments the painted surface into a multitude of marks.

Brian MacDonald asked three artists to create an artwork knowing that they would be part of an installation with a troubling dilemma: the works of art would only be an instant of respite in the face of the nuisances of the everyday life ?

David M.C. Miller does not subject just anything to this process of erasure or fragmentation, only the face, image par excellence of others, a subject in its own right, unique and singular, whole and indivisible.

Works gathered in Maps in Doubt exhibition are the result of a superposition or a juxtaposition of the rewriting journey of the two artists in different cities to deconstruct the spaces geography as we know it and use it. 

To be all things brings together David Naylor's sculptures, which recall the furniture in our homes since they are made from armchairs, couches, loveseats, sofas or recamiers, of which the artist only keeps the structures as an armature.  

Monique Moumblow has five-year-old twin girls in the midst of learning language and social skills. Arko Preeka is a phrase made-up by the twins that had deep emotional meaning to the girls yet remained elusive to others.

Renée Lavaillante works are based on data collected during her conversations with hikers in the Collioure area, to whom she asked to described the route of one of their mountain treks. She adapted their oral description to a work on paper, drawing a line representing their route.

Guillaume La Brie's exhibition consists of four large sculptures that, together, appear as the remains of a small furnished apartment. The walls seem to have come to life in order to warp themselves, collapse, crumple, overlap some furniture. 

Yoshiaki Kaihatsu’s installation continues his longstanding material approach that works with waste or garbage as construction material. He has recently been producing environments constructed and altered by the accumulation of Styrofoam packing material.
