40 Years – 40 Hours – 40 Artists
Anniversary CelebrationRead moreFor forty years, DARE-DARE has moved forward as a pathfinder — at times a tightrope walker, often stepping sideways. It has surfaced where least expected, claimed the in-between spaces, shifted the lines, choosing productive friction over the straight and narrow. Forty years of treating art as an active verb: to spill over, to infiltrate, to connect.
Catherine Cormier-Larose
La fêteRead moreTo mark our fortieth anniversary, the celebrations committee invited Catherine Cormier-Larose as one greets an essential voice—with gratitude and joy. A poet, critic, curator, and tireless connector, she embodies a lasting commitment to the poetry community: a vibrant, inspiring presence that brings people together. Titled LA FÊTE, the corpus presented in the illuminated sign sidesteps any notion of decoration or surface-level celebration. Here, the party is a collective gesture, a political stance, a form of joyful resistance. Short, incisive poems turn dancing into an act of disobedience, public conversation into a patient revolt, and artistic provocation into an open invitation. LA FÊTE insists that creating and gathering are, in themselves, acts of resistance—and reasons to sparkle together.
