The Quebec Triennial: A Coming-Out Party for Concordia & UQAM

UQAM alumnus Isabelle Hayeur's Day Trading was one of the Quebec Triennial's highlights

The Globe and Mail’s Sarah Milroy wondered this year whether Montreal could be crowned the new art capital of Canada. Certainly its Quebec Triennial was one of the top shows of the year nationwide, and, as former Tate curator Christina Bagatavicius explains in the winter 2008 issue of Canadian Art, postgraduate programs at Concordia and UQAM are largely to credit for that success. Here, Canadian Art Online offers an indepth look at which school’s alumni and faculty made what for the breakthrough exhibition. The slideshow is 25 images in length, with the first images focusing on those involved with both Concordia and UQAM, the middle images focusing on those involved with Concordia and the latter images representing those engaged with UQAM.
