NOTRE DÉMARCHE ARTISTIQUE
Notre exposition a pour objectif de diffuser l'art et d'initier le public qui vient s'y frotter. Nous avons l'intention de créer un climat de rencontre idéal entre l'art et son public. Pour ce faire, l'exposition s'organisera dans un cadre propice aux rencontres. De nombreux événements se succéderont tout le long de la semaine pour inciter les gens à visiter les lieux. Nous avons choisi d'exposer des oeuvres sur petit format papier pour rendre leur prix accessible, faciliter leur envoi international et leur acquisition sur place. La thématique des monstres est universelle, transcende les cultures et les classes d'âge. Grâce à leur mobilité morbide et la fascination constante du public pour le macabre, des créatures venues de tous les horizons seront enfin réunies dans un même espace. Frissons garantis.

THE THEME, THE FORMAT, THE BIG IDEA
An art exhibition is about the art, and the audience who comes to see it. As curators, our objective is to offer an optimal context for the work exposed to engage with visitors, directly. Our vision for this show is to create a new audience for art. For this to be possible, a few things are necessary: the exhibition must be an open forum in which visitors really do feel welcome and involved, the art must be financially accessible, there needs to be a reason for people to come at all. We therefore focus the exhibition on works on paper, as these are easier to ship overseas and take home. Monsters are compelling to wide audiences as well as to artists working with different mediums and themes. The small format allows us to showcase the diversity of artistic production around the globe. A one week program of activities, shows and contests will fill the gallery space with an eclectic and receptive audience. Vernissages abound, so we are going to do something different with the artists of this year's international roster.
