It’s no secret that Montréal en Lumière’s annual Nuit blanche is a staple cultural event in the city.

Thankfully, the organizers have made sure to bring the party online with a variety of interesting activities to do after hours (of the curfew).

The 18th edition of Nuit blanche starts on March 13 at 8 am with a 24-hour online screening of short films presented by the Festival du nouveau cinéma. Throughout the night, Cinéma du parc and the Nouveau Palais, among other organizations, will be screening selected films that explore different themes.

The rest of the programming begins at 4 pm, with activities like the Montreal Casino’s 24 hours of vinyl, a musical marathon that showcases some of the best local DJs.

Montréal en Lumière is especially looking to showcase multidisciplinary activities. The Nuit blanche cabaret, for instance, presents musical, visual, and performance artists throughout the night. Circus Strokes, a virtual show organized by ESPACIO MÉXICO and the Mexican Cultural Institute in Montreal, will display a multimedia performance inspired by Mexican poets, musicians, and more.

Though it would be nice to be able to explore the city in person, the organizers have made sure to include a diversity of artistic events, like those by the MAC and the Festival Art Souterrain, to make sure to keep things entertaining.

Other highlights of the night include a virtual tour of McGill’s “secret art museum” to discover the chemistry behind many forms of art; a virtual 3D escape game organized by the Pointe-à-Callière museum and A/MAZE Montreal; and a visit of Manuel Mathieu’s “Survivance” exhibition at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts.

MONTRÉAL, Feb. 12, 2018 /CNW Telbec/ - For the 15th edition of Nuit blanche à Montréal, the MAC is offering a wide range of activities in a warm and welcoming atmosphere. On the program: three exhibitions and an art workshop. Art mediators will also be present in the exhibition rooms to answer the visitors' questions. Young and old alike can discover the exhibitions of Leonard Cohen and the MAC Collection, on top of taking part in a Leonard Cohen-inspired art workshop. Additionally, the Restaurant du MAC will offer a variety of tasty bites and hot drinks to warm you up and help you forget the winter chill! On this invigorating evening, admission to the Musée will be free from 6 p.m. to 2 a.m.

Leonard Cohen: Une brèche en toute chose / A Crack in Everything
Presented by CBC/Radio-Canada, Leonard Cohen: Une brèche en toute chose/A Crack in Everything is part of the official program for Montréal's 375th anniversary celebrations. The exhibition is inspired by the world of Leonard Cohen and the great themes of his life and work. This major exhibition is the first to be entirely devoted to the imagination and legacy of this global icon from Montréal.

Beyond the works created especially for Leonard Cohen: Une brèche en toute chose / A Crack in Everything by forty artists, the exhibition also includes innovative multimedia environments where Cohen's songs are covered and performed, as well as a survey of his archival material (writings, drawings and recordings produced over the past half-century). Six galleries are devoted to the critical celebration, loving tribute and, a year after his passing, quiet commemoration of a vast artistic achievement and inspiring life.

MAC Collection: That's How the Light Gets In
The question of light as both subject and material is vast, and compels us to rethink art in its most fundamental aspects. An essential condition for our eyes to perceive anything, light quite logically lies at the core of artists' practices and techniques. The object of reflection and representation, and a condition for the perception of any work, light is a meaningful parameter in the practice of some artists, and one that should be examined.

This portrait of the collection brings together works by Québec and Canadian artists painters, for the most part around a set of questions they were asked: How does light come into your work? How does it infuse your practice? Marie-Claire Blais, Jérôme Bouchard, Olivia Boudreau, Michel Daigneault, Pierre Dorion, Nicolas Lachance, Stéphane La Rue, Rita Letendre, Elizabeth McIntosh, Yann Pocreau, Leopold Plotek, Monique Régimbald-Zeiber, Marc Séguin, Claude Tousignant and Janet Werner all gave thought to these questions. Their responses, which are displayed along the route through the exhibition, provide insight into their highly individual approaches.

MAC Collection: The Gaze Listens
This exhibition is laid out like a conversation that commands the visitors' auditory attention, even though most of the works gathered in this new portrait of the collection are invisible to the ear, but audible to the eye. It showcases pieces by Yves Gaucher, Pascal Grandmaison, Barbara Steinman and Takis that attach obvious importance to the optic and haptic implications of the verb 'listen.' Viewing rhythm as an essential property of form, and viewing both sound and silence as belonging to space, this exhibition constitutes a gesture that sets out to investigate these territories.

That's How the Light Gets In and The Gaze Listens are part ofPictures for an Exhibition, an evolving cycle of exhibitions based on works from the collection and intended to generate new connections between historical works and recent acquisitions, between the different media and artists of various generations.

Art Workshop – A Poem for Cohen
Inspired by Leonard Cohen's world and work, participants in this writing and drawing workshop will be invited to invent and illustrate a poem dedicated to this great singer/songwriter and man of letters.
6 p.m. to midnight

Art mediators in exhibition rooms
Art mediators will be present in the exhibition rooms from 8:30 p.m. to midnight to answer your questions and to give you more information about the artists, their work and the exhibitions. Feel free to speak with them!

Take a break at the Restaurant du MAC
Located on the gallery level of the museum, the Restaurant du MAC will offer a variety of tasty bites and hot drinks to warm you up and fight the cold!
