In the works featured in Luiz Pizarro’s solo exhibition, opening on Tuesday, March 4, at the Paço Imperial, the artist demonstrates a clear commitment to expressing a holistic view of the elements, shifting the focus away from the human figure to prioritize the whole—whether nature, organic forms, or universal harmony. This is the essence of "Metapaisagens" (Metalandscapes), which occupies a 300-square-meter gallery with 18 large-format canvases (ranging from 1.70m to 2.25m), produced between early 2022 and 2023 using acrylic paint, with color serving as a fundamental element—a hallmark of the artist's work. At the back of the space, the "Magic Cube"—or "Cube of Wishes"—invites visitors to select a color from available yarn, threading it through points within the interactive installation to match the number of letters in their name while "focusing on their wishes." Geometric forms also appear as white cubes within the canvases themselves, which Pizarro refers to as "crystal cubes." This marks the artist's fourth exhibition at the Paço Imperial, where they have previously showcased paintings, prints, and paraffin works.

Créé en 1988 et composé d’une dizaine d’architectes, l’Atelier Pierre Thibault place en dialogue constant le territoire québécois, ses paysages, ses saisons et son architecture vernaculaire de manière à créer des projets intimement ancrés dans le milieu naturel et culturel. Fortement influencé par les lieux qui l’entourent, l’Atelier a su se démarquer sur les scènes nationale et internationale grâce à son approche sensible, empirique et intuitive. Cet univers intriqué et poétique de lieux, d’images et de typologies qui l’habitent se matérialise dans le cadre de l’exposition, proposant aux visiteurs une immersion littérale et figurative dans l’imaginaire architectural québécois et des territoires qui le compose.
Scénarisée en un archipel composé de plusieurs ilots-territoires, l’exposition utilise le corpus distinctif de Thibault et son équipe pour interroger les différents rapports entre un projet d’architecture, son site d’implantation, son contexte culturel et naturel. En résulte une constellation architecturale distillant l’essence du travail de l’Atelier, brillant à la fois par sa constance et sa capacité de renouvellement, et ce depuis une trentaine d’années. Articulée autour des médiums de prédilection de l’agence - maquettes et croquis - l’exposition s’ancre dans une volonté de construire des ponts entre différentes approches architecturales et paysagères et de stimuler des échanges durables et lumineux entre cette profession, les territoires qu’elle construit et le grand public.
