Re: Artist in Residence program in Montreal - ANNOUNCEMENT

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



First time I hear of this Creative Boost thing! 
This is a completely new turnkey outfit from outerspace.  Ready to burst like a magic fireworks in the sky! 
Brought to you by nobody else than the most controversial Dr. Norman Cornett, PhD!   (Google him, it's interesting)

Their street address is a sleek place on a classy street of Montreal a few blocks from where I am. 
Over the years,  its been a lot of things: an art gallery, a contemporary art gallery, an art contemporary gallery, a gallery contemporary art;  a gallery art contemporary.  
Then it's become a liturgical equipment supply gallery;  then it turned into a contemporary streetwindow mannequin gallery/store.  The place was always nice but mostly empty, thanks to Canada Council grants, etc....  And now,  it's a Creative Boost operation.   

Ask me if I would want to do a residency with this outfit...  !
