Claude Tousignant was born in 1932 in Montreal and has lived and worked there for most of his life. His practice, internationally recognized for its unique and significant contribution to the history of art, is essentially about colour interaction and monochrome. The many important exhibitions devoted to Tousignant's work include a mid-career retrospective that opened in 1973 at the National Gallery of Canada (before travelling to twelve other major centres) and the very large and widely acclaimed retrospective held last year at the Musee d'art contemporain de Montreal.
Exhibit runs until May 29, 2010
