In the summer of 1985, a contemporary art exhibition about a northern aurora was held in Montréal. Thirty Canadian artists participated in the event, among them Michael Snow, Irene Whittome, Rober Racine and Geneviève Cadieux. Their works focus on the relationship between man and his environment. René Blouin and Normand Thériault attempt to clarify the goal of this exhibition. Presented by the Centre international d'art contemporain.
Vidéo mémoire d'une aurore boréale. Dans le cadre des Cent jours d'art contemporain, CIAC Montréal présentait Aurora Borealis. A l'été 1985, trente artistes canadiens ont été réunis dans un espace commercial dans le but de l'aménager. Trente questionnements ont alors émergé. En explorant l'espace et les différents lieux, la caméra suggère sa propre lecture des oeuvres.
