Guillaume Adjutor Provost et Al.

Guillaume Adjutor Provost is currently pursuing his doctoral degree at the Université du Québec à Montréal. His research focuses on the concept of curatorial art, namely the use of curatorial approaches as creative practice. His recent projects employ hybrid propositions that borrow from the languages of visual art, curating and literature. Through an indeterminateness of forms, Guillaume Adjutor Provost’s production plumbs our unconscious expressions, the idea of usage and the construction of ideals. More specifically, he is interested in what lies in the periphery of history-making: counter-culture, personal archives, queer theory and science-fiction. His past awards include grants from the Conseil des Arts et des lettres du Québec, the Canada Council for the Arts, the OJIQ, the Sodec and the Jean-Claude Rochefort prize in contemporary art. Guillaume Adjutor Provost’s work has been presented in solo and group exhibitions in Canada, France, Germany, Austria, Belgium, and Switzerland. He has recently been awarded a three-year studio at Darling Foundry, beginning in the summer of 2016.

Guillaume Adjutor Provost would like to thank the Centre CLARK team, Sagamie, the Fondation Christoph Merian, the Conseil des Arts et des Lettres du Québec, as well as the collaborators participating in this project.
