Simon Gaudreau
Simon has been exhibiting his artwork in various collective shows since 2008. His work has been shown at several exhibition spaces, including Galerie Verticale in Quebec City and Galerie B-312 and la Maison de la Culture Notre-Dame-de-Grâce in Montreal. He has participated in art exhibitions throughout Canada and in Europe, including a show at Halle 14 in Leipzig, Germany. In 2013, he put on his first solo exhibition entitled White Blanc at the Circa centre d’exposition in Montreal. Simon also works as a filmmaker, creating human-scale documentary films with extremely unique subjects who are often marginalized and living as social misfits. His first feature-length documentary, KING OF THE l’EST, was an official selection of the 2010 Festival du Nouveau Cinema. GAGNON, his first short fiction film, was presented at the Rendez-vous du cinéma Québécois in February 2014. His second feature-length documentary, FUCKED, was presented as part of the “Focus Québec/Canada” competition at the Festival du Nouveau Cinéma in October of 2014.
