Quebec Museum Offers New Connections to Culture
QUEBEC CITY?
"They were take off from their families and it was very difficult," says Line Ouellet, telling the story of many aboriginal people in Quebec and elsewhere in Canada who were confined to reservations as recently as 50 years back. Their children were delivered to convents for his or her education, depriving them of usage of their native language and culture.

Ouellet may be the director of Quebec City's National Museum of Fine Arts, which has just opened a new pavilion to showcase 400 contemporary works by Quebec artists, including native artist Nadia Myre, whose work The Scar she actually is describing. In small beige canvases, Myre has collected the memories of her people and the splitting up of families. Each person stitched an image onto a canvas, that was then displayed in a grouping with others, each telling a person tale of loss in a tale with hundreds of chapters.

The task is housed in the museum's 15,000-square-meter, three-level pavilion constructed of glass and steel and cement, with transparency, translucency, and literal windows in walls for connecting the galleries with one another and museum-goers with the world around them. Even a staircase leading from the 3rd floor to the second reason is structured on the side of the building and encased in glass, so one can see the rolling fields and the river that surround the museum. During the night, the museum looks like a box filled with light.

read more of Nadia Myre?s The Scar can be seen on the far left. In the guts is Trevor Gould?s Nubian Giraffe. Through the window, visitors can watch out onto Quebec?s Grand Allee and the city beyond.
