A busy spring!
Arcmtl invites you to visit the Chromatic Festival, from May 26 to June 2, at which we will be presenting a special Distroboto machine, full of new art! Furthermore, we’re presenting as part of Chromatic Pro, a zine creation workshop integrating elements of augmented reality. Lastly, Expozine and the magazine Grilled Cheese will host a zine workshop for kids as part of Chromatic Kids. Not to be missed!
We also have an exhibit of comic art featuring legendary Montreal comic artist and longtime Arcmtl colleague Siris at Espace Lafontaine, 3933 Ave. du Parc-La Fontaine, as part of the seventh annualFestival de B.D. de Montréal during May 2018.
Arcmtl had a very busy 2017! You can see photos on our image blog, such as from our Possibles project and book launch in April, our Grande Print Art Fair in May, our Expo 67: Avant Garde! exhibit in May at the Cinémathèque Québecoise and in June at Casa del Popolo, our poster exhibit at the 77 Montreal punk music festival in July, the Kermesse littéraire du Plateau in August and Expozine in November.
