La Boutique de l'Atelier

Présentation

A kilometer from the village of Gallichan, on the shore of the Duparquet River, artists Jacques Baril and Liliane Gagnon propose an incursion into their artistic universe during your visit of their studio and adjoining shop. A sculptor for the last thirty years, Jacques Baril has won several awards for original and monumental works of art. Many of his public works can be admired across the Abitibi-Témiscamingue region, but also elsewhere in Quebec, Canada and Europe. As regards miniature sculptor and painter Liliane Gagnon, she has been practicing for just as many years as Baril. Most of the materials she uses are drawn from the environment surrounding majestic Lake Abitibi: bark, cedar nodes, bush roots, limestone concretions, etc. She assembles her raw materials to create miniature works of art.
