Summary:
Reimagining Cinem explores the innovations that film and media artists offered Expo audiences and presents extensive visual material to reconstruct the viewer's experience.The book reflects how the Expo 67 film-events were encountered as creative experimentations that resonated with broader 1960s arts and culture, and as institutional collaborations with artists. More displays of photographic, cinematic, and telematic technology were experienced at Expo 67 than in any other previous world exposition. Reimagining Cinema captures the complexity and imaginative fervour of this exciting period in film history.

Summary:
Though Expo 67 looms large in our collective memory, it is often remembered nostalgically as a remote historical event. The conditions that made Expo an exceptional cultural moment are often forgotten: remarkable creative freedom was granted to artists, architects, filmmakers, and designers to experiment with technology and new forms, resulting in an incredible diversity of cultural production. Originating with the Musée d'art contemporain's 2017 exhibition, In Search of Expo 67 brings together original work from nineteen artists and new critical essays to explore the connections between archives and memory. Organized thematically, artists' words and works are put into dialogue with archival imagery that reconstructs key aspects of the original event. Brilliantly illustrated with original artworks and archival documents and images, In Search of Expo 67 revitalizes this utopian moment in Montreal's history as a site of unexpected tensions and immense creativity.

Summary:
Expo 67 tient une large place dans notre mémoire collective, mais la nostalgie en fait souvent un événement lointain, occultant les circonstances qui ont permis ce moment culturel exceptionnel. Pensons notamment à la remarquable liberté avec laquelle créateurs, artistes, architectes, cinéastes et concepteurs ont expérimenté des techniques et des formes nouvelles et proposé des produits culturels d'une diversité étonnante. Corollaire de l'exposition présentée par le Musée d'art contemporain en 2017, À la recherche d'Expo 67 regroupe des œuvres de dix-neuf artistes et des essais inédits qui sondent les liens entre archives et mémoire. La présentation thématique fait dialoguer des œuvres, des mots et des photos d'archives qui restituent des aspects vitaux de l'événement. Des textes et des images de Marie-Claire Blais, Pascal Grandmaison et Cheryl Sim font ressortir l'aspect physique des îles créées de toutes pièces pour l'exposition, tandis que d'autres réinventent ou rappellent des lieux essentiels, comme les pavillons du Canada et des Indiens du Canada. Brillamment illustré d'œuvres d'art originales et enrichi de documents d'archives, écrits et visuels, À la recherche d'Expo 67 redonne vie à ce moment utopique de l'histoire de Montréal, vibrant de tensions inattendues et d'une immense créativité.
