The migration of peoples is a recurring phenomenon in the history of humanity, whether by choice, by obligation, by necessity. What defines our territory? How does cultural heritage and identity affect who we are?

Noémie Weinstein portrays the spaces of the voyage. The paintings represent the fragments of silent, desert landscapes that sometimes recall the melancholy of tropics, and at other times, artificial spaces. Her painting reveals the troubling and changing aspect of occidental tourism.

eXcentrer's curators Marthe Carrier, Stéphanie Chabot, Emmanuelle Choquette and Émilie Granjon, directors of Galerie B-312, Skol, Arprim and Circa invite you to this singular event which takes place from September 2019 to May 2020 at the Galerie d'art Desjardins de Drummondville.

They are six. All in their twenties and thirties. They studied arts at Concordia University and UQAM. They chose painting. The exhibition Six peintres, deux écoles, trois lieux, une rencontre, presented in 2014 at Galerie B-312 and in two other Montréal art centres.

To begin the 2014 season, Galerie B-312 invites you to an exhibition bringing together six graduates of Concordia University and UQAM from the Master’s of Visual Arts program. All have chosen painting.

In Refusing to make a scene, Pavitra Wickramasinghe presents her work on the upheaval in the domain of the constitution of images from the moment the cinema introduces a radical change of structure in this field. 

Doreen Wittenbols works in the tradition of figurative paintings and her main subject is sexuality. The artist, however, approaches sexuality through the question of the role, focusing on our behaviours towards others, and mainly explores the performative dimension of the image.

The exhibition makes us aware of the "way" with which art opens onto a world of fiction that can surprise us so much because it does not present the context of the physical, historical, social and cultural space-time in which we are immersed.

Caritas is Latin for "high price", "expensive (of a thing)". But Caritas also means "high esteem", "love", "tenderness", "affection". This year again, almost 50 artists agreed to participate in the Caritas sales exhibition organized for the benefit of Gallery B-312.

This exhibition was inspired by my experience of specific works by each artist — works that placed emphasis upon the living body in an ongoing interaction with its environment. 

The exchange project between artist-run centres outside of Quebec and the Galerie B-312  is in its final stage with the presentation of the EyeLevel Gallery centre in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

As every year, B-312 Emergence invites you to a fundraising event. This time, twenty-six artists, to whom the gallery's project is particularly close to their hearts, will present twenty-five works on Préliminaires.

The imprint of words... and other works of art. My work has always recognized the silence and the imprint of words. Silence oscillates. Impotent and powerful. Stimulating and disturbing. Sometimes my body speaks. My posture or the way I cross my arms become words.
