In the Shadow of Evangeline: 11 New Acadian Tales
September 25, 2010-January 30, 2011
Created over the last fifteen years, In the Shadow of Evangline is the result of an initiative undertaken by the Galerie d’art de l’Université de Moncton, for the creation of works by contemporary Acadian artists with Evangeline (the well-known Acadian folk heroine of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s 1847 narrative poem) as the central focus.The artists — including Lise Robichaud, Mario Doucette, Michel Robichaud, Jennifer Bélanger, Yvon Gallant, Nancy Morin, Herménégilde Chiasson, Francis Coutellier, and Roméo Savoie— express their sense of cultural identity by interpreting the story in their own visual style.
