    Jean-François Bouchard is the co-founder of Sid Lee and was its CEO for 25 years. During his long tenure at the agency, photography was a side project for him but he managed to present exhibitions of his work  in Montreal, New York, Paris and Toronto. A few years ago, he stepped down to become a full-time visual artist. His most recent project - The New Cubans - is launching soon with a book and an international touring exhibition. Jean-François Bouchard's book will debut at Paris Photo and the Perrotin Store in New York City. The first show opens at the prestigious Blouin Division gallery in Montreal next week (October 30th, 17h00, 2020 William Street, all welcome!) Here’s what  he told us about the project: “Careers often seem like straight paths, marked by a series of steps to climb, but they frequently take unexpected turns—or, sometimes, come full circle. Mine has certainly come full circle. Before embarking on the epic journey of creating Sid Lee with my partners, I dreamed of being a photographer. I was deeply immersed in photojournalism for student newspapers and experimenting in the studio. However, I fell in love with design and transitioned into becoming a creative business entrepreneur. I never regretted it, not one bit. Now, decades later, I find myself back where I started—with photography. My studio is, serendipitously, just a few blocks away from Sid Lee’s original tiny loft! My new chapter as a full-time visual artist feels like a return to my roots: once again, I’m learning my craft and hustling to create something from nothing. It’s both exhilarating and emotional to fully embrace this new career, especially as I prepare to release my new photography book, co-published by powerHouse Books (USA) and André FRERE éditions (France). I believe many people often forget it is ok to try new paths, take radical turns... Or even go back full circle to embrace old passions and make a go of it.” To meet us at the exhibit next Wednesday, here is the link to the event: https://bit.ly/3NDsluf.

    Dans son nouveau film intitulé La peur au ventre, où Léa Clermont-Dion s'est immiscée au sein des groupes anti-avortement au États-Unis et au Canada. Nous avons réalisé cette série d'affiches inspirées de celles que l'on peut voir dans les manifestation pro-choix. Elles devaient avoir un fort impact visuel et transmettre toute l'angoisse que les femmes vivent devant leurs droits qui sont menacés. Le film sera diffusé sur Télé-Québec le 21 octobre à 20h en ondes, en ligne et sur l'appli de Télé-Québec. Il sera aussi projeté le 15 novembre au festival Cinémania.

    The "Any Way We Can" logo's gritty texture serves as a stamp, symbolizing the impactful work done by United Way Greater Toronto to combat poverty in the GTA. The fingerprint motif symbolizes every employee's involvement in the efforts to help those in need. Over 50 real employees and their partner agencies were featured in film and photography, bringing authenticity to the campaign and showcasing the people who get it done, any way they can.

    Pour annoncer la fin de Réno-Dépôt, on a ramené l’emblématique porte-parole Normand Brathwaite. Il nous a marqués avec les légendaires pubs «Si ça existait, on l’aurait». Quelle était votre préférée ? Ici on a un penchant pour le «Flavor Jet» et sa barbotine illimitée.
