Matt Shane!

If you are a long-time Librairie customer (or if you ever came in here before August 2009), you probably remember Matt Shane. He could be found behind the counter here for a solid two years, and he left the Librairie to start a Masters of Fine Arts at Concordia.


Tonight he has a vernissage for that very same art! Matt makes beautiful, detailed, unworldly paintings. Plus he's totally a sweetheart, so it's a win-win.

Read about it in the Montreal Mirror, where they describe his work as "hopeful gloom".

Relevant information:
The vernissage is at Red Bird Studios (135 Van Horne O.).
It starts around 7 pm tonight, Friday November 26th.
The pieces will be on display until December 6th.
