MOMENTA Biennale de l'image
MOMENTA Biennale de l'image (formerly known as Le Mois de la Photo à Montréal) is a biennial contemporary art event held in Montréal, Canada. Established as a nonprofit organization, it operates under the business registration number 896548203RR0001. The biennial focuses on lens-based and image-centric practices, presenting thematic exhibitions, public programs, and educational initiatives across the city’s museums, galleries, and artist-run centres.
History and mission
Founded to promote critical engagement with contemporary visual culture, MOMENTA emphasizes socially resonant art and interdisciplinary dialogues. Its programming invites reflection on themes such as identity, technology, and representation, often featuring works by Canadian and international artists who challenge conventional narratives.
Editions and curation
The event occurs biennially, with each edition curated around a central theme. Notable recent iterations include:
- 2021: A multi-venue exhibition featuring 51 artists, augmented reality installations, and Indigenous-led outdoor projects[4].
- 2023: Titled Mascarades. L’attrait de la métamorphose (Masquerades: The Allure of Metamorphosis), exploring themes of transformation and performative identity[1][5].
- 2025: Curated by Marie-Ann Yemsi under the theme In Praise of the Missing Image, focusing on narratives of absence and invisibility[1].
Leadership
Dominique Sirois-Rouleau was appointed executive director in 2024, overseeing organizational strategy and partnerships[1]. The biennial collaborates with institutions like the Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal (MAC) to extend its year-round educational outreach[2][5].
Public engagement
MOMENTA integrates guided tours, workshops, and conferences to foster accessibility, emphasizing community participation and critical discourse[1][5]. Its exhibitions frequently address pressing global issues, positioning Montréal as a hub for experimental and socially engaged art practices.
