Montreal, a vibrant city whose musical reputation resonates around the world. Yet in recent years, gentrification has forced the closure of many venues that once fueled the city’s music scene. Far from the Quartier des spectacles, where cultural life is officially meant to be concentrated, these now-defunct spaces provided room for original and diverse expression and creation for entire communities.
To honor these lost cultural spaces, the collective Réverbérations d’une crise invites you to a funeral march, where the mourning of these beloved places will transform into festive rage, reclaiming a different vision for the city.
Réverbérations d’une crise: a sound investigation into housing in Montreal is a collective initiated by tenant artists in Montreal, aiming to amplify often-overlooked aspects of the housing crisis.
