Distillery District - Thompson Landry Gallery
Experience this exciting exhibition of 23 new works by Dominic Besner. This young dynamic mixed media
artist from Montreal uses dreamlike characters, brilliant colours, and architectural elements to achieve
an unparalleled richness and depth to his works. Besner's unique vision has inspired fashion designers
from Morocco, Montreal, and Toronto to join this amazing exhibition. These designers' remarkable creations
will be hanging side by side with the magnificent colours of the artist's large scale pieces, creating
a marriage between the two mediums. Fashion has often been linked to the art of its time, and throughout
the ages, direct connections have always existed between artist and designer. This travelling exhibition
will continue its worldwide tour after the Toronto "Grande finale" occurring during this year's
Scotiabank Nuit Blanche.
