Anne-Marie Proulx's Être jardin at Vox was curated by Marie J. Jean with Dominique Mousseau and Claudine Roger. It is the latest part of a photo/installation project by the artist that dates to 2015. Proulx's project involves a complex relationship with Anne Hébert 's Premier jardin (1988). The novel, in part, deals with an actress in a thinly veiled Québec City. Filled with theatrical referencing (from Molière to Beckett), this was transformed by Proulx into a book of photographs and appropriated texts in four acts, furthering the underlying theatrical aspect of the source novel.
A critical revue of contemporary art in the city.
