Read Andrée Lévesque’s essay, a professor in the Department of History at McGill University, shedding light on the repercussions of the Great Depression in Montreal. Explore a series of photographs taken by Canadian artist Margaret Watkins (1884-1969) during a stay in London amidst the Crisis years, along with the meticulous interpretation by Debra Antoncic, art historian, curator, and Director of the Riverbrink Art Museum.
NEW DIRECTOR
Nicole Burisch is joining the Leonard & Bina Ellen Art Gallery today as its new director. Burisch, an accomplished curator and Concordia alumna, brings over 20 years of experience in arts leadership, programming and advocacy to this role.
“I am deeply honoured to take on this role at the Ellen Art Gallery,” Burisch says. “University art galleries have a unique position in the contemporary art landscape, they have the capacity to support in-depth artistic and curatorial research while also being important spaces for experimentation and risk-taking.
The Gallery team warmly welcomes her.
UNICEF
