Following the success of the first showcase in April 2023, La Galerie de la Passerelle has quickly become a must-see stop for both tourists strolling Quebec’s historic streets, and its residents, where they can discover new artistic works and meet others with similar interests. Recognized as a cultural hub, Le Capitole takes advantage of its bright, modern spaces to feature both visual and performing arts talents. Stemming from a collaboration with Galeries d’art Beauchamp, La Galerie de la Passerelle offers a unique panorama in the heart of the city.

L’odyssée des couleurs: a symphony for the eyes

The new showcase, L’odyssée des couleurs, promises to transport visitors to a world where colour reigns and creativity unfolds in all its splendour by featuring the works of such well-known artists as: Linda Bucci, Cynthia Coulombe Bégin, Danaé Couture, Marie-Lysa Lemelin, Gerda Marschall, Patrick Pépin, André Pleau and Mélanie Simard. Through a selection of works in various artistic techniques, such as oil paint, and acrylic paint on wood, this astonishing series of bold colours results in the most harmonious of compositions.
