Catherine Cormier-Larose
La fêteRead moreTo mark our fortieth anniversary, the celebrations committee invited Catherine Cormier-Larose as one greets an essential voice—with gratitude and joy. A poet, critic, curator, and tireless connector, she embodies a lasting commitment to the poetry community: a vibrant, inspiring presence that brings people together. Titled LA FÊTE, the corpus presented in the illuminated sign sidesteps any notion of decoration or surface-level celebration. Here, the party is a collective gesture, a political stance, a form of joyful resistance. Short, incisive poems turn dancing into an act of disobedience, public conversation into a patient revolt, and artistic provocation into an open invitation. LA FÊTE insists that creating and gathering are, in themselves, acts of resistance—and reasons to sparkle together.
40 Years – 40 Hours – 40 Artists
Anniversary CelebrationRead moreFor forty years, DARE-DARE has moved forward as a pathfinder — at times a tightrope walker, often stepping sideways. It has surfaced where least expected, claimed the in-between spaces, shifted the lines, choosing productive friction over the straight and narrow. Forty years of treating art as an active verb: to spill over, to infiltrate, to connect.

Peupleraie - Corps social et corps sonoreRead morePeupleraie invites us to explore the soundscape of a community of trees, poplars, in the urban fabric of the Petite-Bourgogne neighborhood and the Lachine Canal, as a metaphor for the “living environment” and the social body. Anyone passing through the South-West neighborhood with an internet-connected device and a pair of headphones can experience the project. Various connectors are available at the HALTE or at the DARE-DARE offices.

DislocationRead moreAccording to Jeanne E. Masterson, wounds bear witness to our human condition, chaotic, universal and constant. Their transformation into scars on the surface hides their true dimensions, dislocates them. What are the possible repercussions if wounds are neglected, ignored, simply sewn up and forgotten?
