Fonderie Darling is a visual-arts center founded and directed by the not-for-profit organization Quartier Éphémère, whose mandate is to support the creation, production, and dissemination of contemporary art. Carrying out its main activities in the industrial space of a former foundry in Old Montreal, Fonderie Darling presents three major exhibitions per year, offers production studios to local artists and hosts international residencies. A unique institution in Montreal, Fonderie Darling hopes to establish strong connections between local and international art scenes.
