New at DHC/ART!
First off, we’d like to announce a new project that is very close to our heart – our new iPhone application! This application is one of the only ‘apps’ created by a contemporary art institution in Montreal. The entire team took part in this adventure to create a lively and convivial tool. On this app, our Founder and Director, Phoebe Greenberg speaks to you about her vision of the Foundation and our Curator, John Zeppetelli adds an analytic look at each of the works presented in the exhibition, Chronicles of a Disappearance.
And in further news that is extremely exciting for the Foundation, we are very proud to announce a new initiative that makes our education projects even more dynamic and interactive as well as helps to contribute to the understanding of current practices in contemporary art. The artistic projects presented for DHC/ART - Education in conjunction with each exhibition will be now conceived by a Montreal artist or collective. For this first project, Emmanuelle Léonard has accepted our invitation and will be the first artist to take part in this new project!
Don’t forget that the exhibition opens tomorrow and that our doors will be open to welcome you at noon!

A brand new exhibition at DHC/ART!
The team at the Foundation is working hard on installing the new exhibition Chronicles of a Disappearance which will present the works of five internationally renowned artists: Omer Fast, Philippe Parreno, Taryn Simon, Teresa Margolles and José Toirac. We are very much looking forward to showing you the fruits of our labor. Follow us on Facebook and Twitter (@dhcart) for the details and don't miss the exhibition, which begins January 19.
2011 ended on a great note. We were awarded 'Meilleure exposition - centre de diffusion municipal, centre culturel ou centre d'exposition' for last year's Jenny Holzer exhibition during the AGAC visual arts gala. We wish to thank the AGAC one more and congratulate the other recipients.
Happy New Year and see you soon!
