As part of a new series of exhibitions dedicated to the art scene in large cities, the Maison Rouge first honours the city of Winnipeg (Manitoba, Canada). Using a variety of media, visitors will discover works marked by a historical and mythical heritage as well as a certain despair tinged with immigrant humour, which populated the region during the 19th and 20th century. Artists such as Sarah Anne Jonhson, Jon Pylypchuck, Shary Boyle, Guy Maddin, William Eakin and Diana Thorneycroft, will provide visitors with one of the most complete look into Winnipeg’s fertile and imaginative artistic community.
