Free all-night contemporary art event
For one sleepless night, experience Toronto transformed by hundreds of artists and nearly 90 art projects. This year’s program responds to one event-wide curatorial theme of Continuum. The theme follows many paths during the event – set against a backdrop of the ever-present renewal of night into day, a continuum of experience and ideas is brought to light by the participating artists. A series of Nuit Talks will take place before and after the all night art event and nine extended art projects will remain on display through October 14.
Major project are:
Creation: Destruction, curated by Layne Hinton & Rui Pimenta
Lunar Garden by Daniel Arsham Studio
Queens and Kings of Scarborough, curated by Ashley McKenzie-Barnes
