Arsenal Contemporary Art Montreal presents a new selection of works from the collection. Come and discover our exhibition space, transformed to show imposing works, in size and in content.
About
Jon Rafman
Rafman’s work explores the limits and imbrications of real and virtual worlds and asserts the prominence of technologies in our time. The artist creates a virtual universe displaying the rather dark sides of the internet, a “place” that the artist describes as a platform for emancipation with sometimes disturbing expressions.
Eric Yahnker
First trained as a journalist, Californian artist Eric Yahnker multiplies references to American pop culture. Using caricatures and irony, his practice fully grasps the contemporary socio-political Zeitgeist.
Caroline Mesquita
Caroline Mesquita’s work mainly consists of sculptural installations with human forms, which she uses to explore the complexity of humans’ behaviors. She infuses vitality in her assemblages, which probe the notion of action through a theatricality.
Nicolas Lachance
Heterogeneous in appearance, Nicolas Lachance's pictorial practice steadily follows the image phenomena of appearance and disappearance. The photographic metaphor serves as a matrix for a long and laborious manual work.
Kapwani Kiwanga
Kiwanga’s training in anthropology and comparative religion permeates her artistic practice. Respecting a rigorous method, the artist’s works are a continuation of her research, exploring power relations through the symbolism of certain objects or materials.
Arsenal Contemporary Art Montreal is proud to present artwork from the Giverny Capital Art Collection: pink-blue by Kapwani Kiwanga, recipient of the 2018 Sobey Art Award. The presentation of this work was made possible thanks to the Giverny Foundation for Contemporary Art.
