For 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.
Teams
Lise Nantel
As an artist, Lise Nantel has taken part since 1972 in more than twenty solo or collaborative (duo) exhibitions, both in galleries and in non-art spaces, as well as in over forty group exhibitions (in galleries, artist-run centres, museums, and Maisons de la culture). She has also created sets, scenographies, and murals for public spaces.
In terms of dissemination, since 1985 she has worked as a lecturer, guest artist, and professor in visual arts at the Université du Québec à Chicoutimi, the Université du Québec à Montréal, and Concordia University, and has served on various master’s juries at these three institutions. She has also been a member of the administrative boards of several artist-run centres and artist associations (including serving as President of the Conseil des arts textiles du Québec), as well as a member of selection committees or juries (Ministère de la Culture, Musée d’art contemporain, etc.). She is a founding member of Éditions du Remue-ménage and co-author of Les Patenteux du Québec.
