Description

Established May 11, 2007, MEKIC is located in the heart of Montreal’s Plateau Mont-Royal. This one of a kind cultural organization has four components that are active in four complementary fields: an arts centre, an art gallery, a bookshop, and the publisher Ketabe Iran Canada. A dynamic place for dissemination, MEKIC’s primary mission is to facilitate and promote the discovery of the art, history, culture and literature of Southwest Asia (commonly called the Near and Middle East). Since its inception, the primary objective of MEKIC’s art gallery has been to showcase the contemporary art of Southwest Asia. Running between five to eight exhibitions per year, the gallery presents works by both well established artists as well as talented young and mid-career artists who express themselves in various media such as painting, sculpture, ceramics, miniatures and photography. Certain artists represented by the gallery live outside Canada, and often exhibit work in the gallery that has never before been seen on the American continent. Several other artists currently reside within Quebec. Roughly fifteen artists are represented by the MEKIC art gallery. Établie depuis le 11 mai 2007, la galerie MEKIC est située en plein cœur du Plateau Mont Royal de Montréal. Unique en son genre, cet organisme culturel œuvre dans quatre domaines complémentaires représentés par quatre entités : le centre culturel, la galerie d’art, la librairie et la Maison d’édition Ketabe Iran Canada. Lieu de diffusion dynamique, sa mission première est de faciliter et de promouvoir la découverte de l’art, de l’histoire, de la culture et de la littérature de l’Asie du Sud-Ouest (communément appelée le Proche et le Moyen-Orient). Depuis son ouverture, la vocation première de la galerie d’art MEKIC est de présenter l’art contemporain du sud-ouest de l’Asie. Organisant entre cinq et huit expositions par année, elle expose autant les œuvres d’artistes bien établis que celles d’artistes de la relève qui s’expriment dans des formes d’art diverses telles que la peinture, la sculpture, la céramique, la miniature ou la photographie. Certains artistes représentés par la galerie vivent à l’extérieur du Canada et présentent souvent à la galerie les œuvres qui n’ont jamais été exposées sur le continent américain. Plusieurs artistes de la galerie résident actuellement au Québec, et près d’une quinzaine d’entre eux sont représentés par la galerie MEKIC.
