Marie-Claire Blais and Berthe Weil at Montréal Museum of Fine Arts

With gloomy weather on the horizon, why not take the opportunity to stroll through the galleries of the Montréal Museum of Fine Arts and discover the first major exhibition dedicated to the fascinating career of gallery owner Berthe Weill (1865–1951)?

This important but almost forgotten figure in the history of modern art was the first woman to support emerging “young painters.” She promoted some of the greatest artists we know today from the very beginning of their careers: Pablo Picasso, Raoul Dufy, Marc Chagall, Amedeo Modigliani, Diego Rivera, Henri Matisse, Suzanne Valadon, and many others.

On view until September 7, 2025.

Until January 4, 2026, artist Marie-Claire Blais is presenting her first solo exhibition in a Quebec museum. The exhibition unveils a completely new body of work, consisting of a monumental installation, paintings, and a sound piece. In this contemplative environment, the pictorial atmospheres, tinged with pink, blue, and orange, evoke the daily experience of sunrise and sunset. An exhibition that you must see.
