La Galerie B-312 est très heureuse de vous convier à une soirée de cinéma en compagnie du réalisateur tunisien Sélim Gribâa. Du documentaire à la fiction, la sélection de courts-métrages pose un regard sensible et inédit sur la Tunisie d'aujourd'hui. 

While photography is the essence of Alexis Gros-Louis' practice, he combines photographic techniques with a variety of media. These combinations, considered paratextual, aim to examine the substance of images as well as the histories and exchanges between objects, space and viewer. Alexis Gros-Louis highlights the complex relationships between the photographed objects, the space in which they are situated, and the viewer who interacts with the work. The artist is interested in notions of identity and belonging, and the normative systems of dominant cultures.

La maison de la culture Lachine is pleased to present Provoke | Fluid States in collaboration with the Conseil des arts de Montréal and Galerie B-312, which, to celebrate its 30th anniversary, has invited Maude Arès, a 30-year-old artist, and Massimo Guerrera, an artist with a 30-year career, to explore time as a matter of practice.

The Crystal Gazers project consists of a series of digital collages printed on decommissioned LCD screens. It was during a residency that Mathieu Grenier began this work, discovering the enormous quantity of used screens regularly accumulated in front of a television repair store in Brooklyn, end-of-life objects waiting to be shipped internationally, in order to be "recycled".

When the strange knock on the well-known door, it created perceptual and psychological discomfort. Involving itself cunningly, not to say sneaky, it causes awkwardness or fear. The artists reclaim a collective and symbolic basin to better invest it with a personal aesthetic.

Gabrielle Lajoie-Bergeron is the curator of La Track | The Track a project with exhibitions, residences and conferences in which artists from Montreal and Baltimore reflect on uprooting, disorientation and encounter concepts.

But the sound of a hammer in the distance prompts you to interrupt the recording. You stand up and look outside. The light fades. Your window shivers. The wind is blowing. A thin smoke emerges from a cigarette burning in an ashtray on the neighbor's windowsill.

Created by Jean-Pierre Aubé, 31 soleils (Dawn chorus) is an installation composed of a video and a sound piece. Entirely immersive, it is the result of the observation of the sunrise coupled with the low frequencies emitted by radio waves at this precise moment of the day.

Conversations Montréal | Lyon was initiated by curators Marthe Carrier and Chloé Grondeau and spearheaded by Galerie B-312 in Montreal. It has since become an avenue of exchange between Lyon and Montreal, with a particular emphasis on showcasing the local art scene in each city.

Julie Favreau presents From Her Character an in situ proposal that continues the research initiated with She Century, a body of variable works that revisits the history and archetypes of women from the position of the artist and their apprehension of the gesture. 

Julie Favreau's practice lies at the intersection of visual arts, dance, choreography and staged. Her research on performative gesture and movement feeds the production of sculptural objects. She creates characters, objects and gestures that compose enigmatic universes.

For a few years now the Galerie B-312 has been partnering with community organizations to promote audience development and a better understanding of contemporary art and its practices.
