Lynda Gaudreau
Artist, choreographer, curator, and researcher, Lynda Gaudreau has been developing an experimental and radical practice for over thirty years at the intersection of dance, image, and installation. Her work explores the forms that choreographic processes can take within the field of the image and its spatial staging, creating installations in which film, body, and object intertwine. In doing so, she questions the modes of presentation developed by artists and curators, as well as the ways images, sounds, and texts are received within a space. She invites the audience to engage in close attention to the whimsical or unsettling detail, making the presence of the body and the role of the spectator the driving forces behind a new form of writing.
The past ten years have been marked by her doctoral and postdoctoral research and by her work as a researcher within academic institutions in Montreal and Helsinki. She devoted her doctoral dissertation to the concept of asynchrony in the arts. Lynda Gaudreau has also collaborated with numerous international contemporary arts venues, notably the Théâtre de la Ville de Paris (which co-produced and presented her work for nearly seven years), the Venice Biennale, the Leonard & Bina Ellen Art Gallery, the Architectural Association School of Architecture in London, and, more recently, the University of the Arts Helsinki.
