Exhibition 399

Concordia University

This one-day exhibition, 399, is a student initiative to showcase the works of emerging Concordia artists outside the academic context. This pop-up show creates an alternative space for presenting and disseminating Concordia student’s work in a professional setting and prepares them for post-art school transition to the “big” art world. Initiated within the context of the art theory course ARTT 399/3B, Body, Arts and the State, this exhibition reflects on some of the philosophical, historical, and socio-institutional issues that frame the professional practices of emerging artists. The exhibition provides a critical commentary on the diverse and complex nature of the contemporary art world and consists multidisciplinary art practices and includes art work in the mediums of video art, painting and drawing, live art and art action. This interdisciplinary exhibition will serve to create a temporary space in which to unpack thematic of the course through visual & interactive pieces presented by Fine Arts Undergraduates.

Coming Soon

INSIDE MADPOETIX STUDIO is revolutionizing our Soirées Intimes Series by allowing the audience to get to know the feature performer through an interview during the show live. The artist will be interviewed by our host Kym Dominique Ferguson @Mrkdferguson. This is a one of a kind experience. There will be 8 Open Mic spots available for all genres: spoken word, poetry, comedy, singers, clowns, dancers, you name it we welcome it. They are each given a 5 min timeslot.

What if you entered an empty rehearsal hall and suddenly an audience appears? Joseph Ste-Marie brings his experimental scripted/improvised one-man show, This Show is Broken back to the stage! This remount blends the 2021 Digital Theatre production from the Montreal FRINGE Festival and the original 2015 production at the 2nd annual Shortstanding Festival. Ste-Marie must perform his show as he explores his life, struggles, missteps, and tries to show that it’s not too late to pursue your dreams…. However, Joseph is challenged to be honest with himself so his show can be authentic as possible without being blinded by ambition.

The Creator of the Universe is coming to Montréal for the first time ever! God takes the stage in the form of Montréal actor Donald Rees in An Act of God: the divinely funny, critically acclaimed Broadway hit play by David Javerbaum, in which God and His devoted angels answer the deepest questions that have plagued mankind since creation.
