During Summer 2026, we invited you to experience the city in a new way with Art in Movement. Whether by riding a bike or stopping at a station, every trip became an opportunity to discover, observe, and let yourself be surprised.
Designed as a two-part experience, this project — created in collaboration with Loto-Québec — explored a simple idea: art can be both what transports you and what awaits you.

The BIXI network was turned into an open-air gallery! 16 stations were showcasing reproductions of artworks from the Loto-Québec Collection.
Visiting each of them along the 4 suggested routes allowed you to see the city from a new perspective.
An artist and lecturer at Concordia University, Trevor Kiernander explores the connections between painting, music, and movement. His practice, informed by his experience as a DJ and curator, results in dynamic works influenced by rhythm, community, and contemporary culture.
A visual artist based in Montreal and Eastern Townships, Jean-Sébastien Denis has spent more than 20 years developing a practice that has garnered recognition in galleries, public spaces, and major Quebec collections. His work explores color, rhythm, and architecture through painting, murals, and the integration of artworks into the urban environment.
An artist of Paraguayan origin and Guarani Indigenous descent, Riesbri creates works that blend sculpture, painting, and ecological research. Her practice explores the relationships between humans, territories, and environments through a hybrid visual language inspired by organic and industrial forms.
A Canadian artist influenced by film, animation, comics, and design, Gabor Bata has developed a visual practice rich in narrative and graphic forms. A graduate of Concordia University, he has recently exhibited his work at several contemporary art events in Quebec.
The Loto-Québec Collection is a driving force behind the promotion of contemporary art in Quebec. Established in 1979, it now comprises nearly 5,000 works by more than 1,200 local artists, making it one of the largest corporate art collections in Quebec.
Through exhibitions and events across the province, the Loto-Québec Collection makes art accessible to the public while actively supporting emerging and up-and-coming artists.
In the Plateau and around the Jean-Talon Market, the Loto-Québec Collection is right where life happens: in the streets, parks, and neighborhoods that give Montréal its unique character.
