The Association des groupes en arts visuels francophones (Association
of Francophone Visual Arts Groups - AGAVF) is an umbrella
organisation made up of francophone artists' associations
and art centers from across Canada. In 2000 and 2001, the
Association organised a pan-Canadian artists' exchange residency
project that gave 35 francophone artists the opportunity
to work and present in various areas of the country.
For 2003, the Association opted to hold the artists' residency
project in one location - Winnipeg, Manitoba. Eleven artists from
across Canada join three Manitoba artists in a two week residency
project titled PARALLAXE.
Participating art centers include: Centre
de production d’estampe
Imago (Moncton, New Brunswick), Galerie Sans Nom (Moncton, New
Brunswick), Écart…lieu d’art actuel (Rouyn-Noranda,
Quebec), Centre de production DAÏMÕN (Gatineau, Quebec),
Galerie du Nouvel-Ontario (Sudbury, Ontario) and Maison
des artistes (St. Boniface, Manitoba).
