Directory of artist-run centres in Quebec and Canada : 6th edition

The Répertoire des centers d'artistes autogérés du Québec et du Canada provides up-to-date information on one hundred and eighteen artist-run centers, and includes nearly 800 addresses of institutions, services and resources related to the visual arts. The Répertoire is a comprehensive source of information for anyone wishing to know about, discover or simply frequent the Quebec and Canadian contemporary art network. A text by Jocelyn Robert sheds light on the foundations and evolution of artist-run centers, while a text by Jonathan Middleton and Daniel Roy outlines the current Canadian context. A visual identification system and an index make it easy to find artist-run centers that, in addition to disseminating art, host artists-in-residence, publish, provide access to archives and documentation, and offer equipment and production spaces. A work designed for artists and the many people involved in the cultural milieu. An indispensable guide for anyone interested in contemporary art.
