La Maison des artistes visuels francophones - Winnipeg
About La Maison des artistes visuels francophones
Each year, La Maison des Artistes offers between 5 and 6 professional exhibitions in its main gallery. This program seeks to present current works in various disciplines and is reflected each year around a theme. By placing these exhibitions in a linguistic minority context, La Maison seeks to awaken and sensitize the public on the way in which culture models our vision of the world around us.
La Maison constantly reassesses the vision proposed by its programming with the awareness that each cultural creator brings with him the weight of social responsibility and the possibility of societal change. In a period of global challenges where identity and diversity are divisive issues, La Maison plays an important role in the cultural fabric by acting as a linguistic bridge between several minority communities.
La Maison provides an opportunity to celebrate difference and enrich the cultural realm through dialogue , and art in Manitoba and beyond. La Maison is an accessible space for creative dreamers that showcases culture and events in French, where all those who wish can participate and belong to a community full of possibilities.
Call for Applications
Chosen by a call for applications or by invitation, the professional exhibitions of the contemporary gallery are scheduled until spring 2023. These exhibitions, lasting approximately 2 months, are presented in the main gallery, but can also spill over if necessary into the Studio, a space adapted into a multifunctional gallery in 2016. La Maison relies on a critical dialogue in the orientation of its programming and the projects it presents address contemporary issues in different mediums of the visual arts spectrum.
The selection of the 2023-24 program will be made in winter 2021 through a call for proposals revolving around a specific theme. The projects that will be part of it will be selected by a committee formed by members of the La Maison team and Francophone artists or cultural workers following a call for projects.

A visit worth the detour.
We took an outside tour of this place to admire the excellent work of these French-speaking artists. We have some photos to share with you. We recommend the visit. We were there on September 9, 2017 at the end of the afternoon.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This Gallery regularly pleases and is always worth a visit. It's not large, but the eclectic exhibitions are usually worth a visit. Don't forget to check the yard. Even in the nighttime the outside is neat.
These 2 exhibitions are by 3 artists. Sheila Spence and Gilles Hebert have an exhibition Back to Paradise. Both artists have displayed a series of items and images that conjure up memories of pleasant times and fun places. Spence's photographs of family outings, mostly at Grand Beach, are both nostalgic and evocative of family get togethers. Hebert's collection of collections of found memories is like looking at myriad time capsules of not only people but cultures as well. There are some oddities, check out the rocking chair off to the side.
Freya Perron is an artist working in textiles. Here she is using the soft textures of woolly like things to create the shapes more usually associated with rocks and other hard objects. In addition, the works are all mounted and framed in exquisite fashion, the framer even gets a nod at the entrance. It is interesting that at first they don't seem like much, but you quickly realize that they are very attractive and pleasing. (Possibly this is a result of my background since there is a strong resemblance to Star Trek tribbles) Almost with a sense of chamber music, they would provide a pleasant atmosphere to any setting.
It's not a large Gallery, but it is always worth visiting if you're in the area, and very often worth the effort even if you are not. Bus service is very good, so you don't need to worry about parking. There are several good restaurants within walking distance, especially Chaise Lounge just down the street.
