You are invited to a fundraising evening at the Fondation, during which the first monograph by Quebec artist Guido Molinari will be launched. In addition to presenting this publication, with texts by Bernard Teyssèdre, Roald Nasgaard, François-Marc Gagnon and Marc Séguin, this benefit evening, under the honorary presidency of Mr. Alain Lacoursière, the “Columbo of art”, will be an opportunity to discover works by the artist while visiting the reserves of the Foundation, a former bank located in the Hochelaga-Maisonneuve district. The Molinari Quartet will be on hand for the evening, which will also include performances inspired by the artist’s work and readings of his poems. The evening will conclude with a draw for an original Molinari silkscreen.
