From April 19 to June 13, works by Alexandre Allard-Dufour will be on display at the Corridor Gallery in the Almonte Library.
Alexandre is a father, engineer, and aspiring artist. After moving to Almonte five years ago, he decided to learn how to paint with watercolour. Inspired by the friendly town and its strong sense of community, Alex started painting a series of building portraits of the local businesses. While he continues to learn watercolour, Alex has branched out and started creating larger works using different media and techniques. His goal is to explore the world of visual art while trying to find his voice.
The works shown at the Corridor Gallery will include a variety of different styles. These pieces demonstrate Alex’s progression as an artist and his journey while learning about visual art. His work aims to explore various themes such as the importance of community, social paradox and economic systems. To see more of his art, follow him on Instagram at art_by_alexandre.
