The spring brings Marcel Barbeau back to Vancouver from March 28th to April 3rd for his exhibition at the Windsor Gallery which has been representing him on the West coast since the fall of 2009. Under the title ‘Anaconstruction”, the exhibition includes paintings from Barbeau’s most recent stay in Paris, created between 1994 and 2008. A painting from his last Montreal production, from 2009 and directly related to these, four prints, created between 1990 and 2002 and two small studies on sculptures from 1989 and 1990, which are connected to this production and have already been exposed in France, complete this exhibition of great formal unity, considering the length of the twenty year period it covers. It highlights the interrelation between Barbeau’s paintings and sculptures from this period and the sculptural and architectural dimensions of its continuation “Anaconstructions” which these paintings and prints belong to.
