This conference-experience is dedicated to the issues of communication in public space. The discussion between representatives of the academic, community and artistic communities is accompanied by a visit to the DARE-DARE artist-run center.

The heart of the "Phony Monuments" project is an audio-guided tour in the south of Montreal, which follows an itinerary comprised of different stops in the neighbourhoods of St-Henri, Griffintown and along the Lachine Canal.

karen elaine spencer proposes to disseminate in the public space excerpts from the Quebec Charter of Rights and Freedoms, which she has transcribed onto large wooden panels.

This project consists of small booklets with short, powerful stories that people have told me over the years.

Les PETITES VITES de DARE-DARE, initiated and organized by our Critical Space Committee, consist of a series of flash presentations within a strict protocol: the speakers have exactly 7 minutes and a visual support of 5 images to make their presentation.

The project approaches the Lachine Canal as an entity, seen through the eyes and actions the Wanderer, a character created by the artist Douglas Scholes.

The starting point of the artwork is to locate urban furniture elements that are damaged in order to perform «repairs» on them. This operation initiates an artistic gesture where the repairing partly dictates the choice of shapes, scales and materials. The objective is to position my sculptures as prostheses replacing the missing or broken parts of selected objects.

"Minorité invisible" must be listened to with a blindfold. The project's subject is the dissemination and poeticization of the sound territory, the search for the invisible.

Ten statements invite passers-by to better understand the neighborhood in which the illuminated sign is located. The statements aim to make visible forgotten elements of daily life in the Quartier des spectacles: the popular singer, the native art, the demolition of housing, the closing of an Arab grocery store...

Through my research residency at the DARE-DARE Center, I sought to understand what the artistic, social and political stakes of the "revolutionary adventure" of the first Place des Arts really were.

In this ambitious project, the artists Magali Babin and Sylvie Cotton will collect the first names of every person living in the HJM, creating a unique soundtrack from the collection.
