Description

A landmark in the heart of Montreal for over 100 years, the McCord Stewart Museum bears witness to the history of Quebec’s metropolis as well as its influence in Canada and around the world, celebrating the vitality, creativity and diversity of the communities that make it up. The Museum amplifies their voices by interpreting and disseminating the remarkable heritage under its custody: six expansive collections of 2.5 million images, objects, documents and works of art that make it one of North America’s leading museums. In keeping with its commitment to decolonization and sustainable development, it creates stimulating exhibitions and educational, cultural and community-engagement activities that look at the social history and contemporary issues affecting its audiences through a critical and inclusive lens, inspiring them to take action for a fairer society. The exhibition 'Indigenous Voices of Today: Knowledge, Trauma, Resilience' bears witness to the still unrecognized knowledge of Indigenous peoples in Quebec and Canada as well as the deep wounds they carry and their incredible resilience. 'Manasie Akpaliapik. Inuit Universe' is an exhibition dedicated to Manasie Akpaliapik' work, a contemporary artist from Nunavut. Conceived and produced by the Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec and featuring 40 sculptures from the late Raymond Brousseau’s remarkable collection of Inuit art, the exhibition offers a unique look at the work of Manasie Akpaliapik. 'Costume Balls – Dressing Up History, 1870-1927' captures the splendour of entertainments where, for just one evening, guests transformed themselves into characters inspired by history or fantasy. The invitation to reimagine oneself as an alter ego was no less than an opportunity of a lifetime, occasioning study, expense, and a trip to the photographer’s studio. The exhibition tells an extraordinary story, showcasing some of the most extraordinary objects in the Museum’s collections. The exhibition 'To All the Unnamed Women' by artist and independent curator Michaëlle Sergile, a tribute to the lives of Black women in Montreal between the years 1870 and 1910.
