The public is invited to participate in their interactive projections.  The exhibition follows the artists’ research on the mechanisms of optical illusions, whereby a sequence of fixed images appears to be moving—creating an illusion of movement. Inspired by researcher Eadweard Muybridge’s chronophotography studies and his phenakistiscope wheels of dancers and boxers, the artists have created their own digital wheels. »  Text by the artists    Individual Exhibition November 5 – 8, 2014 Pensées mécaniques Video installation, photography Patrick Dionne et Miki Gingras
«In recent years, the work of the artists “The Two Gullivers” has become a source of theoretical reflection on two main subjects: the presence of the artist, during and after the performance, and the preparatory drawings as a method of repetition and re-enactment of the performance.  Artist’s Breath is a performance which focuses on time, space, and the public. For the duration of the exhibition, the artists invest the gallery for a totality of 25 hours, as a “laboratory” space, and invite the public to participate in their creation.  Artist’s Breath ends on November 15th with a CONFERMANCE. This term, created by the “Two Gullivers”, designates a conference driven by a performative action. They re-enact, for this occasion, certain performances by the artist Marina Abramovic and invite the public to assist and/or participate in re-enactment workshops of performative works. »  Text by the artists  Performance November 5 – 15, 2014 Le souffle de l'artiste Performance, drawing, installation Flutura & Besnik Haxhillari (The Two Gullivers)	«La Vie modèle follows the psychological derailment of a woman, isolated from nature and from the real world in her ultramodern and urban condominium, who sees her life turned upside down when a digital spirit haunts her and makes her lose all sense of orientation inside her home. La Vie modèle was inspired by models in 3D animation. Real estate developers often insert images of ‘happy’ people into their housing models, in order to sell a trendy and utopian way of life living in their future condos. This video underlines the artificiality of synthetic materials which are increasingly occupying the places we live in, and which come and disturb our notions of domestic comfort.» Text by the artist Individual Exhibition November 5 – 15, 2014 La vie modèle Video Philippe Hamelin

Text by Yan Romanesky, guest curator: «In art history, details have always played a vital role. They express a desire to see, scrutinize, and analyze a work of art in depth. Details usually serve as an educational tool for art historians to direct the gaze of readers or of an audience to an object, a character or texture that is significant in the comprehension of a piece. However, details are also used by numerous artists as inspiration during their creative process. For example, Rodin often reused certain details of his sculptures: hands, legs, and sometimes even entire bodies of which he only reworked the posture. As for Picasso, he appropriated certain details of well-known works, the most famous being the Infanta Margaret Theresa at the centre of the painting Las Meninas by Velázquez. Details are often a pretext for exchanges with the spectators. It invites them to participate in a game of observation, interpretation and investigation. By thinking about the different uses of details in the conception of an artwork, I became interested in their integration in the process of certain contemporary artists. »                                                             Text translated by Caitlin Stall-Paquet    Group exhibition August 1 – September 6, 2014 Du détail à l'oeuvre Guest Curator: Yan Romanesky Perry Bard, Sarah Bertrand-Hamel, Michel Boulanger, Annie Briard, Massimo Guerrera, Fabrizio Perozzi, Denis Rousseau, Sylvia Safdie, Stephen Schofield, Andrea Szilasi, Sébastien Worsnip, Jacques Fournier	The artworks presented in the exhibition INHABITING consist of handmade paper created by Sarah Bertrand-Hamel through which the artist manipulates fibres, colours, textures and translucency.

« While there are rare individuals who are fuelled by an insatiable thirst for a nobler truth, most of us are constantly are constantly pursuing things that have no real value, running after glitter, shadows and delusions. Running because we have no time in a senseless unending loop which in itself is a revelation of our existence. There is nothing more to be said. It is simplicity itself. »*      Individual Exhibition May 22 – June 14, 2014 Guest of Honor Video Alessandro Mangiarotti	Outside: Sylvia Safdie's photography at Émilie-Gamelin park François Morelli's drawing at Quartier des spectacles (Loto Quebec exhibition) Art Fair April 25 – 27, 2014 Papier14 Works on paper Michel Boulanger, Massimo Guerrera, Thierry Marceau, Michel Niquette, Sylvia Safdie, Stephen Schofield
The MILITARY series consists mainly of large drawings on paper composed with a mixture of chalk, acrylics, ink, and gold leaves. It was inspired by murals depicting the glories of war.  Throughout my work, one can find an archetype that provides a continuing leitmotif: The Superhero. For me, this symbol of our society’s fascination with power and machismo represents a transformation of everyday life into the world of power fantasy, embodied by the superman. Individual Exhibition April 10 – May 10, 2014 SOLDATS Painting, sculpture Paul Abraham	BPM 37093 is a star situated about fifty light-years from our solar system. Having reached the end of its existence, it core is 90% crystalized, transforming what was a mass of carbon into a gigantic diamond. Both the form and content of the narratives that Julie Tremble creates are inspired by radical processes of transformation such as the one BPM 37093 went through. She is particularly interested in astronomic phenomena that, due to their scale, defy direct perception. While for scientists these objects exist in the form of graphics and mathematical calculations, for most people they can only be understood through a fictive process. The artist builds fictional spaces using documentary and cinematic vocabulary to reflect on the dramatic codes and clichés through which we attempt to portray the indemonstrable.

HB is a magazine, a gallery on paper, a platform—a dynamic space dedicated to contemporary drawing. We intend to showcase the work of a wide range of artists, from the hard-to-miss who have made their mark on the artistic landscape and continue to shape it, to marginalised artists, young artists whose practices move and promise, artists who draw in hiding, artists who, by sheer misfortune, have as yet enjoyed little exposure. structured so that each page threads together a set of visual sequences, HB is a space for exchange that gives precedence to imagery over text. HB magazine is an initiative of Arprim, Articule, Axénéo7, Clark Art Center, Joyce Yahouda Gallery and Saw gallery. projet April 4, 2014 HB # 3 Launching at Formats Art Bookstore	Individual Exhibition March 12 – June 10, 2014 Corine Lemieux @ Usine C Presented in collaboration with Usine C Corine Lemieux
« My current series of photographs of museum statues alters our perception of the intended representation of the human body. Taken with my cell phone camera and enlarged as plotter prints (photocopies used by architects for plans), the large-scale, high contrast black and white photographs on cheap paper give a crass quality to the spotlit statues. It appears that they were taken from their respectable institutional home and transposed onto a concert stage or into a strip show. You could say that the breakdown of our expectations is echoed by the deterioration of resolution and detail in the photographic image.We take for granted the sight of museum visitors photographing exhibition artifacts even though much better quality reproductions of the same works can be found in the museum gift shop or in a book. Individual Exhibition March 1 – 29, 2014 Plotter Prints Photography Andrea Szilasi	Grands retournements by Michel Boulanger is a project of immersive art which appeals to the visitor’s capacity to mentally extend the real space in which one finds oneself into a graphically composed place. Through the discipline of drawing, the artist uses experimental hybrid forms, combines hand-made drawing with a synthesis of 3D imagery, the image in movement and the object.

“Sight Shifting” reveals Annie Briard's latest creative explorations marked by a two-year period living on the Canadian West Coast. “Sight Shifting” is a solo exhibition of moving-image investigations into perception. Using both cutting edge technologies and those from a bygone era, the artist constructs immersive moving image works that ask us to consider the spaces between the seen and the imagined. The exhibition is accompanied by an in-depth interview between the artist and Vancouver-based writer and interviewer Magnolia Pauker: Sight Shifting Poetics of Perception with Annie Briard Individual Exhibition January 25 – February 22, 2014 Sight Shifting Video, photography, installation Annie Briard	In both his architectural projects and art installations, Jacques Bilodeau’s primary focus is always the body – his and ours. Known for his large-scale architectural initiatives that radically challenge the assumptions defining domestic life, the artist has, since 2000, created sculptures and installations that invite spectators to immerse themselves in the piece. With Masses, his new in situ work (2150 St-clement st, Montreal), Bilodeau forcefully returns to the formal preoccupations and materials that have long had him in their grip: vaguely menacing geometric and organic forms crafted from steel, felt and leather. It is possible to see Masses on Fridays and Saturdays, from 1pm to 5pm, and by appointment the rest of the week. Tel: 514-875-2323; email: info@joyceyahoudagallery.com Masses is also presented in a video at the gallery with two other Jacques Bilodeau artworks: Faire son trou (2007) and Transformable 1 (2004).   Individual Exhibition January 25 – February 22, 2014 Masses InSitu installation Jacques Bilodeau
