Summary:
Working with ideas of place and the imaginary, three Canadian francophone artists create works that portray ephemeral places that exist only in the imagination. Isabelle Hayeur's photographs are manipulated to include fictional elements, using lies to tell the truth about gentrification, complicating perceptions of an iconic place. Marie-Josee Laframboise transforms site-specific installations made of undulating iridescent netting into imaginary landscapes. Meditating on the temporal character of a site, Lise Beaudry photographs the surfaces of frozen lakes as white abstractions. The accompanying essay explores the viewer's experience of ethereal and ambiguous environments predicated on no place.

Olivier Lazzarotti aborde ici les thématiques du tourisme et du patrimoine, non séparément, mais ensemble, par l’étude des liaisons qui articulent ces deux phénomènes sociaux. En analysant les très nombreux lieux où patrimoine et tourisme sont co-présents, d’Angkor au Costa-Rica, de la réserve camerounaise du Dja à Amiens, à Hanoï ou Hiroshima, l’auteur fait le constat que, contrairement aux idées répandues, le tourisme ne détruit pas le patrimoine, pas plus que le patrimoine n’entrave ou interdit le tourisme, mais que l’un et l’autre entretiennent un dialogue à la fois ininterrompu et aux facettes changeantes et multiples.
