 | | It was in Quebec City, as part of the Célébrations de Québec 1984, held on the 450th anniversary of Jacques Cartier's arrival in New France, that the curator Claude Gosselin accepted the invitation of the Québec 1534-1984 corporation to create a program of visual arts, film and video around the theme "wind and water." |
 | | This first event, in Quebec City, brought together, among other participants, thirty-one visual artists, five of who were commissioned to create in situ work: François Baschet, Daniel Buren, Murray Favro, Francine Larivée, and Rober Racine. |
 | | For the first edition of Les Cent jours d'art contemporain, held in Montreal 1985, Claude Gosselin obtained the support of two important figures on the arts scene in Quebec and the rest of Canada, the curators and art critics René Blouin and Normand Thériault. |
