QUÉBEC: AN UNEXPECTED FACE-TO-FACE ENCOUNTER WITH OUR HUMANITY

From February 26 to October 12, 2026, the Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec (MNBAQ) is hosting the Canadian premiere of This Is Not a Body, as part of an international tour that has taken it to 17 cities from Bilbao to Québec City. This major exhibition showcases a selection of works exemplifying hyperrealist sculpture on a national and global scale. Featuring some forty breathtakingly realistic pieces by 35 artists from Québec, Canada and abroad, it explores how the human figure has been depicted in sculpture from the 1970s to the present day.
