11 artists, under the artistic direction of Jean-Pierre Pérusse, offer us their interpretation of SUPERHEROES.

Often creating their art in precarious conditions, visual artists are in our eyes, cultural superheroes. By purchasing their masterpieces, you become their sponsors and their livelihood, 100% of the sales will go to the artists. Time to act! Also on exhibit: ARTISTIC ILLUSION (Kat Coric and Jean-Pierre Pérusse, with the collaboration of Robert Laliberté).

The day Stéfane Lippé placed his first vinyl on the Sky Pub turntables, a new chapter began in the long history of Québec’s love for house music. Born with a completely instinctual understanding of the musical spectrum, Stéfane Lippé was destined for success, far from his humble beginnings at Thérèse-Martin High School in Joliette, Quebec. Inspired by the likes of Frankie Knuckles, Deep Dish, Stephan Grondin, Derrick Carter, and Mark Anthony, he has become one of the top figures in the Montréal nightlife scene since the beginning of the millennium, quickly becoming one of the most respected DJs in the city, province, and country.

His spot-on eye for the hottest emerging sounds helped pioneer Montréal’s now world-famous house scene from the outset.

True to himself and his vision, Mark has been instrumental in making house music and clubbing a unique experience, an art form, a means of expression. He may be recognized globally as a master of the turntables, but Mark’s career has also included turns as an accomplished music and event producer, always striving to breathe new life into nightlife.
