Place à Alex Chinneck : Premier baiser au crépuscule
FIRST KISS AT DUSK Master of illusion, artist Alex Chinneck transforms urban elements too often taken for granted in our experience of the city. Here, two intertwined lampposts seem to defy the laws of physics to embrace each other. Thus personified, the improbably entwined lampposts infuse Montmorency Park with a dose of poetry and tenderness. Like Old Quebec and its warm side, this luminous work stands as a visual signature of the historic district and its romantic streets. CAPTURE THE MOMENT! Take a photo with the artwork, a symbol of love for the city of Quebec. Place your phone in the stand, activate the timer, and position yourself near the entwined lampposts.
