Occurrence, Espace D’Art Et D’Essai Contemporains

Artist-Run Centres / Galleries

Description

Occurrence is dedicated to the dissemination of contemporary art, with a focus on photography and image practices. Its program is selected through a committee of peers made up of artists and active participants in the arts community with varied viewpoints. Renewed each year, this committee ensures a diverse program that reflects current issues. Founded in 1989, Occurrence is a not-for-profit organisation with a unique mandate in the Quebec cultural scene. Its name, meaning “what arrives in contingent ways”, carries a vision based on emergent practices and those that marked its history, actualising them to reveal their transformation in time. / Occurrence se dédie à la diffusion des arts actuels, avec la photographie et les pratiques de l’image comme ancrage. Ses choix de programmation s’appuient sur un comité de pairs, composé d’artistes et d’acteurs de l’art aux regards multiples, renouvelé chaque année, assurant une programmation diversifiée qui reflète les enjeux actuels. Fondé en 1989, Occurrence est un organisme dont le mandat est singulier dans le paysage culturel québécois. Son nom, signifiant « ce qui advient de façon circonstancielle », est porteur d’une vision axée sur les pratiques émergeant du présent et sur celles qui ont marqué son histoire, en les actualisant pour témoigner de leur transformation dans le temps.
