The Best Kept Secret in Montreal / Le secret le mieux gardé à Montréal
Ilga Leimanis
What is Montreal's best kept secret? Concordia University's Leonard & Bina Ellen Gallery. The challenge presented by the gallery's tenth anniversary was to address the history of exhibition and collection. To do so five artists were invited to explore the gallery's mandate, practices and environment, and to transform its traditional exhibition space. Thérèse Chabot, Stéphane Gilot and Vid Ingelevics, among others, took up the challenge.

Vid Ingelevics: Alltagsgeschichten (Some Histories of Everyday Life)
Modris Eksteins & Blake Fitzpatrick
"Alltagsgeschichten" is a genre of historical investigation that emerged in the 1980s primarily in Germany. Its practitioners concentrate on the everyday and the repetitive to the exclusion of anything deemed great or exceptional. Through photographs, text and sculptural elements, the Latvian-born artist attempts to meld this approach with living memory and historical representation as they pertain to World War II and its effects on displaced persons, particularly his own family. Text in English and French.
