Nicole Taillon of the Galerie Taillon Carpe Diem:
“We have a tradition at home for years already:” The Gift of Pickle. ”
Tradition native of Poland which wants to hide a pickle in the Christmas Tree.
The one who finds it is entitled to a gift … our version: Two ornements of glass in the form of gherkin.
The gift itself is often of great value but there are also junk … La Vie Quoi! “That’s the Life!
“We have transposed this tradition to the gallery and we have made it fire”
Mr. Roger Doyle who won the gift of PICKLE
“Thank you once again for introducing us so elegantly to the many Quebecois artists … at the opening of your wonderful gallery in early December 2016 …
“As a prize winner, you asked me to comment on the content of the Prize …”
Here are my comments….
Watercolor by Rolland Dostie
…. A pearl of the expression Québécoise of our heritage … our own “Krieghoff”
The Back Masseur
…. Of a superb originality … a whip, recycled as a back masseur … really?
The T-Shirts of the Quebec sculpture “Bienvenue”
… Paste everything to my taste with images that will remain “Bronzer (Sunbathe)” in my memory.
The Stones (stony assortments of the shop of the gallery)
…. To heat on a wood fires … with the taste to invite whatever one to cool them.
The Bottle of Wine (Wine from here is better than water from there)
… original idea with a deep truth.
Card and Voucher Postcards and Two Gift Certificates $ 80 and $ 70)
… Gifts for girlfriends …
Do you believe in fatality?
