Yesterday, I attended the launch of the new exhibitions at the National Gallery of Quebec [Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec] entitled C’est arrivé près de chez vous. L’art actuel à Québec and Zao Wou-Ki. Hommage à Riopelle et peintures récentes. The first one shows contemporary art peics, while the second one concentrates ont the works by Zao Wou-Ki.

My full review of the exhibits will be published in the coming days. In the meantime, I’m sharing with you some pictures taken on the fly.

Wathc the blog over the weekend since I’ll be posting videos.
