Appreciation towards EXMURO for providing the following description:

“Insolites走廊”是魁北克规模最大的公共艺术项目，由EXMURO在魁北克政府的支持下完成，如今已经举办了五届。今年所展示的一系列临时艺术装置位于魁北克旧城区内，这些作品以大胆而新颖的形式融入了历史建筑和城市景观，为市民们带来独特、充满诗意且具有互动性的城市漫步体验，其创作者是来自加拿大当地的艺术家和建筑从业者。

The 5th edition of Passages Insolites (Unusual Passages), a self-guided circuit of ephemeral public artworks in inspiring locations along a breathtaking route in historic Old Quebec. Sometimes playful, sometimes introspective, always surprising, these provocative works are boldly integrated into the historic architecture for a fresh contemporary reading of the urban landscape. Passages Insolites is best experienced by charting your own course through the historic district’s winding streets. By day or night, experience how thought-provoking art transforms its surroundings, adding a touch of whimsy and sparking poetic, socially engaged dialogue. The walking circuit offers a singular, inclusive and accessible experience and an unusually intimate glimpse of the work of some of Canada’s leading artists and architecture collectives.

“后-后现代主义”柱群 / LEGAGA（魁北克）
The Pillars of Post-Postmodernism by LEGAGA

在一个“后-后现代主义”的社会中，污水管、雕塑和花园也许没有任何区别。该装置在鲜艳俏皮的外表下提出了一个严肃的问题：美为何为美，丑又为何为丑？我们该如何用“丑”的事物来创造“美”的事物？（该艺术装置是2018年“Insolites走廊”作品竞赛的优胜作品）

What is the difference between sewer pipes, sculptures, and gardens? In a post-postmodern society, there isn’t any. Don’t be fooled by its colourful, playful appearance—this installation asks serious questions: What makes beauty beautiful, and ugliness ugly? How can we use ugliness to make beauty? The Pillars of Post-Postmodernism confront these ideas and invites you to imagine a completely different kind of city, one where engineers make art, architects are in charge of engineering, and architecture is left to the artists. (LEGAGA’s installation is the winner of the 2018 Passages Insolites competition held in conjunction with the Université Laval architecture students’ association).

云雀 / Brandon Vickerd（汉密尔顿）
Alouette by Brandon Vickerd (Hamilton)

该作品是加拿大于1962年发射的卫星“云雀1号”的复制品，仿佛与一辆汽车相撞。该作品是对未来不可预测的科学进步的一种隐喻。坠毁的卫星犹如现代版的伊卡洛斯：对科技的盲目信仰导致了它的迅速消亡，使其重新回到地球。

Alouette consists of a replica of the 1962 Canadian satellite Alouette-1, installed as if it has crash landed into a parked sedan. The Alouette project is a metaphor for the unfulfilled promise of a future of scientific advancement once heralded by modernism. The sleek futuristic design of the crashed satellite, resting lifelessly on the crushed car, evokes a modern-day Icarus whose blind faith in technology led to his swift demise, sending him falling back to earth.

快乐的漂流者 / Demers-Mesnard（魁北克）
Happy Castaways by Demers-Mesnard (Quebec)

在魁北克Bassin Louise的港口漂浮着一座神秘的岛屿，岛上居住着各种各样离奇的植物和动物，这是一个远离陆地的奇妙绿洲。快乐的漂流者日夜站立在他们的岛上，邀请人们进入他们和谐而平静的梦境。

In the Bassin Louise section of Quebec City’s port lies a mysterious floating island inhabited by a diverse, surreal cast of plants and animals—a fantastic oasis that appears to have broken off from a distant land mass and drifted to our shores along with its outlandish ecosystem. Day and night, The Happy Castaways stand on their island, inviting us to join them in a shared dream of a world more harmonious and peaceful than this one.

在未来的内脏中 / Collectif 5（布兰维尔，蒙特利尔，魁北克，舍布鲁克）
In the Guts of the Future by Collectif 5 (Blainville, Montréal, Québec, Sherbrooke)

这是一个由大尺寸墙板构成的奇异空间，人们可以在其间穿行。墙板的空隙之处连接着丝网，使人联想到快要收缩至断裂点的肌肉。该作品隐喻了未来充满不确定性的路径和张力。

Large flat slabs of wall form the frame of this singular space, which spectators experience by walking through it. Openings in the modules are created with filaments reminiscent of muscles contracted almost to the breaking point. In the Guts of the Future metaphorically represents possible paths forward into a future fraught with uncertainty and tension.

在别处 / Fannie Giguère（魁北克）
Elsewhere by Fannie Giguère (Quebec)

“在别处”是一个能够引发视听错觉的装置作品，它致敬了“Ombro-Cinéma”这一早期的动画技术，即使用简单的屏幕来营造运动的效果。观者的动作将引发一系列机械式的动画影像，犹如产生于视觉层面上的俳句作品。

Elsewhere is an optical and sonic illusion celebrating “Ombro-Cinéma”, an early animation technique that uses simple screens to create an impression of movement. A collage of images is mechanically animated by the spectator’s movements to reveal a sort of visual haiku.

纪念玛丽安 / Jean-Robert Drouillard（魁北克）
A Monument for Mary Ann by Jean-Robert Drouillard (Quebec)

这座纪念碑致敬了一位原住民奴隶从其主人手中逃脱的事迹。该作品位于路易十四的半身像对面，赞扬了女性为争取平等和尊严而进行的久远而长期的斗争。

A Monument for Mary Ann pays tribute to an Indigenous slave (“Panise woman” in the parlance of the time), who escaped the custody of her owner, a wealthy Place Royale innkeeper. By taking up a position opposite the bust of Louis XIV, the work honours women’s age-old fight for equality, respect, and dignity.

及时 / Samson-Breton（魁北克）
In Time by Samson-Breton (Quebec)

这座雕像/视频装置探寻了宇宙黑洞的轮廓矢量，它无视于时间与空间，将信息传递给另一个全新的世界。借助穿梭时空的力量，该作品以独特的视角审视了魁北克历史上发生的两个鲜为人知的事件：19世纪发生在Petit-Champlain区域的令人不安的入伍行动，以及1889年的魁北克山体滑坡事故。

This sculpture/video installation traces the outline vector of a black hole in the universe. The work defies space-time, transmitting information to and from a single place, but at another time. Through the power of time travel, In Time affords a unique glimpse into two important little-known chapters of Quebec City history: the disturbing practice of crimping (tricking or entrapping men into enlisting on ships) in the Petit-Champlain neighbourhood throughout the 19th century, and the deadly Quebec Rockslide of 1889.

睡莲 / Jean-Yves Vigneau （加蒂诺）
Water Flowers by Jean-Yves Vigneau (Gatineau)

这件艺术品仿佛从印象派的画作中走出：随潮汐起伏的睡莲仿佛正在悠闲地呼吸。具有舒缓效果的人造植物在夜晚发出光亮，仿佛正轻声讲述着与陆地和海洋有关的故事。

As though straight from an impressionist painting, the water lilies (or water flowers) rise and fall to the rhythm of the tides, like leisurely breathing. This soothing, artificial flora lights up in the evening, evoking whispered tales of land and sea.
