7th Biennale de Montréal – BNL MTL

May 1st to 31st, 2011

Curators:
Claude Gosselin, Executive and Artistic Director of CIAC – Centre international d’art contemporain de Montréal

David Liss, Artistic Director of MOCCA – Museum of Contemporary Canadian Art in Toronto.

In total, some 40 artists stemming from 10 different countries have been selected. Whether reputed or emerging, these artists hail from Québec, Canada, Europe and the USA, and have moved forward in an artistic pathway where chance plays an important role. Guest artists work in the fields of visual arts, photography, e-art, video and cinema.

Québec and Canadian artists will represent nearly 50% of all participants. Of note is Daniel Spoerri, who has been a major player on the international artistic scene since the 1960’s.

Through its exhibits, conferences, seminars and mediation activities, the BNL MTL 2011 will provide a venue for all explorations, supported by the vitality and originality of artists and their works.
