Musée des beaux-arts de Mont-Saint-Hilaire

Art Galleries / Museums (Public)

Description

The Museum of Fine Arts of Mont-Saint-Hilaire exists to encourage the visual arts, to disseminate artistic knowledge, to acquire, conserve, collect, showcase and exhibit works of art. Initiated by the artist André Michel, the organization was incorporated on January 28, 1991, under the name of Musée d’art de Mont-Saint-Hilaire. If in a region which can be proud of having welcomed artists such as Paul-Émile Borduas, Ozias Leduc and Jordi Bonet to its lands, it was therefore self-evident that an institution of this type should see the light of day and concentrate as a priority its efforts around the work and thoughts of these three artists who marked the visual panorama of Quebec. / Le Musée des beaux-arts de Mont-Saint-Hilaire a pour mission d’encourager les arts plastiques, de diffuser les connaissances artistiques, d’acquérir, de conserver, de collectionner, de mettre en valeur et d’exposer des œuvres d’art. Initié par l’artiste André Michel, l’organisme a été incorporé le 28 janvier 1991, sous le nom de Musée d’art de Mont-Saint-Hilaire, et a ouvert ses portes, en novembre 1995, au 150, rue du Centre-civique. À sa seizième année d’existence, en 2007, l’institution a requis auprès du Registraire des entreprises du Québec, une modification nominale pour Musée des beaux-arts de Mont-Saint-Hilaire, afin de mieux circonscrire sa mission. Si dans une région qui peut s’enorgueillir d’avoir accueilli en ses terres des artistes tels que Paul-Émile Borduas, Ozias Leduc et Jordi Bonet, il allait donc de soi qu’une institution de ce type voie le jour et concentre en priorité ses efforts autour de l’œuvre et de la pensée de ces trois artistes qui ont marqué le panorama visuel du Québec.
