Bordering the Fantastic
To inaugurate its new premises, Pierre-François Ouellette art contemporain is pleased to present Bordering the Fantastic - an exhibition which reunites the artists of the gallery.
Bordering the Fantastic recognizes that we live in a largely symbolic universe – one that we move through on a daily basis, almost without realizing it, by interpreting an infinite number of things that stand in for other things. Artists are particularly adept at navigating between the signs that make up this cosmos, and are able to bend their meaning to create new associations.
This exhibition represents a unique gathering of works in sculpture, photography, video and drawing. Despite their formal and aesthetic differences, these works play with our expectations by juxtaposing what we know alongside the unfamiliar, the imaginary or even the fantastical.
