Cooke-Sasseville
Conciliation des contraires, 2013
Jean-François Cooke and Pierre Sasseville have worked jointly under the name Cooke-Sasseville since the beginning of 2000. Over time, they have taken part in a large number of solo and collective expositions both on the national and international scene. Of a sculptural and installative nature, the colourful imaginative works of Cooke-Sasseville, are paradoxically forms of both seduction and repulsion deploying with force through space.

Main de Maître, 2008

Deeply-rooted in Charlevoix, he painted man’s reconciliation with nature through the use of oil on canvas, oil pastel, charcoal on paper and engraving. Although, he passed away in 2007, he remains one of Québec’s pivotal artists. The work Main de maitre, designed by Claude Le Sauteur, was executed by the stone and metal sculptor, Jean-Michel Simard. His sculptures are made from stone, bronze and copper and emerge from his innermost inspirations and from the raw materials found in the Charlevoix countryside
Suzanne Martel
La lune ou le tambour, 1996
Suzanne Martel received an MFA from l’Université du Québec in Montréal (1981). She produces artwork that focuses in particular on the notions of friction and tension produced by colours and textures. Her grouped sculptures invariably allude to elements found in landscapes: forms that recall vegetation or the animal world to which, at times, are joined anthropomorphic forms with uneven surfaces.

Christopher Boyne
Zéphyr, 2017
Born in Halifax, 1984, Christopher Boyne earned a Bachelor’s degree in visual arts from Ryerson University in Toronto and a master’s degree in visual arts practice from Concordia University in Montreal. Zéphyr celebrates Charlevoix’s maritime history and traditions. The work is made up of three separate objects: a single blade from a ship’s propeller, an angled bollard (a thick post on the deck of a ship to which a line can be secured) and a glass Fresnel lens light beacon. Though abstracted by their orientation and presentation, the three ‘ready-made’ minimalist sculptures are easily recognized as maritime forms.
Jean Brillant
Porter la nature, 2016
Jean Brillant is a Québécois sculpture born in Rimouski, 1959. He has been creating outdoor sculptures since 1994. Many of his works belong to public as well as to private collections. He believes that sculpture can play a role in our relationship to nature and so can music. In each case, the possibilities are rich and sometimes surprising. “At Domaine Forget, I can’t help but consider music as an element of nature just like stone, vegetation, a small animal…they are one and the same. I feel strongly that this is the best possible tribute”.

Jean Pierre Raynaud
La Flèche
Jean-Pierre Raynaud was a horticulturalist before becoming a multidisciplinary artist. His works have been exhibited for almost sixty years; he gained international recognition early in his career.
The public knows his work through his use of black and white ceramic tiles and black joints. One such work was given to Quebec City by Jacques Chirac in 1987. Erected on the Place de Paris, it was called ‘’Dialogue avec l’histoire’’. The work was destroyed rather violently but has since been rebuilt as a monumental sculpture renamed ‘’Autoportrait’’ and now sits in the park de l’Amérique Française.
