URBAN MYTHOLOGY
By an initiative suggested by the artist-painter and sculptor Jean Pronovost and a experienced team in cinema, a colossal sculptural work of art and discussed by its mythological thematic was exposed on the corner of the streets McGill College and Ste-Catherine for a three hours period, that is to say between 5 p.m. and 20 hours, May 1, 2007.
This performance does implying a sculpture from a height of 8 feet aimed to propel art out of the museums and to present it at the peoples of the street without warning nor protocol, in order to make the population react to the art which, placed out-context, will unambiguously contrast with concrete architecture and people bored with their job.
The purpose of this premiere was also to promote the ILLUMINATION exhibition which was presented at the new underground gallery Usine 106U, located at the 111 Roy E. Opening was taking place on the evening of May 3, from 5 PM to 11 PM. The sculpture The lord and lady of duality, plus two large size paintings from his work was exposed as well as art from a collective of artists of more than twenty-two painters and sculptors.

Jean Pronovost is proud to present « Le culte du néant », a 5x6 foot oil painting on which he worked for one year. This is an allegory representing our society at various periods. Anachronisms and symbols here represent our culture, our system, our servitude, the incoherence in which we live with our customs and our inflatable ideals. This piece, as the title suggests, is a hymn to decadence and to the hopes of our civilization.
