Montreal, March 4th, 2010 – The 5th edition of the art exhibition “D’un œil différent” will take place from March 10th to March 14th at the "Écomusée du fier monde". This exhibition is part of the "Semaine québécoise de la déficience intellectuelle" (Quebec Week of Intellectual Deficiency).
This event aims at raising awareness among the general public, and is organized by the Montreal Association for the Intellectually Handicapped, the Gabrielle-Major and Lisette-Dupras readaptation centers for intellectual defiency, Exeko and La Gang à Rambrou. The exhibition will showcase artworks from about 120 artists from different art workshops, and most of them live with an intellectual defiency. “D’un œil different” will gather in the very same place artists with or without an intellectual defiency who share the same passion for creating. This is an exhibition that will call out the visitors on its humanism.
Nine artists form Exeko will present their artworks: Wayne Schoenfeld, François Gourd, Marc-André Goulet, Stéphan Ballard, Olivier Lefebvre, Clément Loisel, Johanna Autin, Cyril Assathiany, and Christine Tremblay.
