A review and report from Montreal\u2019s Papier12 by Ariane Fairlie<\/p>\n

Papier is an annual contemporary art fair of works on paper presented by the Association of Contemporary Art Galleries (AGAC). \u00a0Papier 12 was held April 12-15, 2012, in a large tent at the edge of Place des Arts in downtown Montreal. Thirty-eight galleries from Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto, Eastman (Quebec), and Halifax presented over 1,200 works from a roster of both established and emerging artists from around the world.<\/p>\n

Kolaj asked budding art critic Ariane Fairlie to take a tour of the fair and report back on what she saw and what she thought. In her travels around the fair, she focused on work by seven artists from Canada, the United States, and France: Jennifer Meanley, Jos\u00e9e Landry Sirois, Simon Hughes, Catherine Farish, Gilbert Garcin, Denis Pellerin, and\u00a0Sadko Hadzihasanovic,<\/p>\n

Samples of work by each artist and excerpts from Fairlie’s writing will presented on the\u00a0Kolaj<\/em> website in the coming days.<\/p>\n
