MONTREAL.- While Vancouver and Toronto may have boasted
the most vibrant art scenes in Canada in the 1980s and 1990s, Winnipeg took over
in the 2000s, spurred on by artist Marcel Dzama. He quickly carved out an
international reputation for his unclassifiable, disconcerting art that reveals
a fanciful, anachronistic world. Marcel Dzama – title (Of Many Turns),
which offers a critical survey of his haunting yet outrageous work, is the
largest solo exhibition of Dzama’s art by a public gallery. It will be presented
at the Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal from February 4 to April 25,
2010.
