While taking a close look at the history of photography and its various uses, the journal is particularly committed to documenting photographic practices that are part of the contemporary art movement and are characterized by an inquiry into their means, their impact, and their position in current culture as a whole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003eThe thematic dossier of this issue, entitled Collecting, brings together the works of two artists and a writer—Christos Dikeakos, Michel Campeau, and Sara Knelman. Their work allows us to discover portraits of collectors, archives that pay tribute to darkroom practices, and a century of images of women reading. Together, they reveal the importance of the gestures, knowledge, and commitments that shape and disseminate culture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe issue also includes three essays. The first analyzes Andrew Jackson's exhibition Little Burgundy – Montreal in Flux at the McCord Stewart Museum, a visual investigation into the memory of the neighbourhood's Black Anglophone community. The second explores Paulie B (Paul Baldonado)'s YouTube video series Walkie Talkie, which gives a voice to the street photography community in New York. Finally, a third text traces fifty years of Clara Gutsche's practice through the exhibition dedicated to her at the Image Centre.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn an interview, Michel Hardy-Vallée discusses \u003ci\u003eMise au point sur la photographie québécoise\u003c\/i\u003e, one of the first histories of photography in Quebec made available online by a collective working in college education.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe issue also features a selection of recent exhibitions in Quebec, Canada, and elsewhere—Skawennati, Julianknxx, Jacynthe Carrier, Simon Émond, Sébastien Michaud, Patrick Dionne and Miki Gingras, Yan Giguère, as well as Marie-Alice Dumont and Raymonde April—in addition to reviews of three books on photography about John Max, Sandra Brewster, and David Hlynsky.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eWinter 2026\u003cbr\u003e106 pages\u003cbr\u003e242 x 292 mm\u003cbr\u003eMontreal, Canada\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Distributions Dynamiques","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46532175397039,"sku":null,"price":14.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7686\/5455\/files\/CielVariable131.jpg?v=1771098913","url":"https:\/\/magazineligne.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/ciel-variable-130","provider":"Ligne","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
