The Lost Vancouver: An Art Deco Tour

Role: Co-Producers, Content Producer, Press Relations & Publicity

A showcase of photographic works by Simon DesRochers and interpretive illustration by Mathieu Persan, focusing on the shifts in Vancouver’s landscape by reminiscing Art Deco. The art works provide a lens, both generous and nostalgic, into the remaining Art Deco buildings in Vancouver. This is the first exhibition to launch The Lost Vancouver series, which aims to spark conversations around preservation of heritage, architecture; the future of art and its necessity in the development of Vancouver. This artistic collaboration takes participants through the history of Vancouver and Art Deco, to survey the relationship between art and economic shifts within a city, and the importance to preserve and restore Canadian cultural heritage landmarks.
