Diane Charbonneau, Curator of Modern and Contemporary Decorative Arts

This exhibition is dedicated to three Quebec gallery owners who used their expertise to ensure glass, ceramics and jewellery became recognized as fully fledged artistic disciplines. It pays tribute to these audacious women and their resolutely contemporary vision of these practices.
