OUT 2021 | Group Exhibition
Dates: March 25 to May 1st, 2021

Artists: Émile Cantin (Canada), Christian Carlsen (Denmark, Kunstskolen Centre), Laura Delvaux (Belgium, La S Grand Atelier), Irène Gérard (Belgium, La S Grand Atelier), Danny Gretscher (Germany), Thomas Labarthe (France), Marie Lemieux (Canada), Lynda Mullan (USA, MSS Centre in Minnesota), Hubert Posey (USA, Arts of Life Centre, Illinois)

Throughout this exhibition, C.O.A. advocates for awareness: nine artists take over the walls of the gallery, five of whom have an intellectual disability and/or an autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Because there is no longer any question of drawing a distinction between these creators, the focus isn’t on the marginal status of some. Whether paintings or sculptures, only the aesthetic qualities and intrinsic properties of each work are recognized.

From Canada, the United States, France, Germany, Belgium and Denmark, the nine artists, both established and emerging, offer a glimpse into their mythology. Regardless of their creative context, the primary goal of this exhibition is to highlight the aesthetic individuality of each artist, and the expression of their own universe.
