A message from Roy Dupuis
Honorary President, Spokesperson and Co-founder
Water is life. Rivers are the veins of our country, our planet… It is our collective duty to protect them from
the human hand, often too adventurous. Fondation Rivières is proud to support citizen groups working
passionately to preserve rivers from pollution, negligence and interventions that could divert them from
their natural course.
As an unconditional river enthusiast, as a lover of their wild beauty, I have given my commitment to do my
best to raise awareness in order to protect the rivers of Quebec.
I am asking for your support to continue our collective endeavor and inviting you to contribute to the
protection of the environment by supporting the Fondation.

brilliant and he is considered, rightly, as the father of modern sculpture in Canada.

Chloé Surprenant
Born in Montreal in 1973, Chloé Surprenant lives and works in Montreal and Amsterdam.
After years on the road, she can tell of the farmer Wroclaw, the shepherd from Constancia, Rick the
captain or the lady of Prague because she understands that the discovery of the world is in the unique and
singular encounter with the Other. And these meetings are the inspiration and the frame for her work,
they are what she talks about through her art and it is these moments that she perpetuates from portrait
to portrait in an ode to human beauty and naked truth.
She has shown in Montreal, Prague, Amsterdam and Lyon.

Mathieu Parent
During his exhibition, Eleven doors, which took place during the summer of 2012, Mathieu Parent showed
the Bas-du-fleuve public eleven pieces of art. Eleven paintings, like doors, which have been created
between 2009 and 2012, in Rouyn-Noranda, Québec and Le Bic.
Using spray paints and stencil, he creates balanced compositions generated with anarchy in luminous
configurations where reverse exists by vacuum and brings structure.
If, for Mathieu, photography possesses a light finding presence, painting comes from the absence of light
coming from the shadow. It does not take long for doors to open…
