Art is everywhere! Especially in a city like Montreal. It is part of the fabric here. Architecture. Sculpture. Installations. Examples of it all are scattered throughout our fine city. Sometimes in the least expected places.
Vitrine sur L’art is exactly this. Presented by Art Souterrain, Vitrine sur L’art features works of art by Quebec artists displayed in the windows of unoccupied properties throughout the downtown area.
It is happening throughout the summer. Here are a list of special events occuring in conjunction with Vitrine sur L’art:
