Recognizing Artists: Enfin Visibles!

During the 1970s and '80s an English-language arts community in Quebec was a wistful memory for many, and a living reality for a die-hard few. It would have been impossible to imagine the current artistic renaissance.  Some of these artists have deep roots in Quebec, some of them left and later returned, while others immigrated here for a wide variety of reasons.  
These essays place the current artistic renaissance in its historical context, outlining major characters, events and previously undocumented stories. General readers will be surprised by the breadth and depth of activity. Specialist readers will wonder why their specific artistic discipline, decade, or region of Quebec is passed over so quickly.  These histories are just a slender sapling: they provide a trunk for new branches, leaves and fruit.

Readers are invited to add anecdotes and personal memories or provide links to other websites, published books, magazines and papers. Specialists are encouraged to enrich the story by delving more deeply into their areas of expertise.
