This catalogue accompanies the exhibition Waiting, produced by Galerie de l’UQAM. Presented from January 11 to February 23, 2019, the project delved into our intimate relationship with time, in particular time spent working, and the pivotal place it holds in our lives. The readings and diverse reimaginings of waiting proposed by the many artists included showed attempts at understanding it and reckoning with its layered significance.

The exhibition and the catalogue received support from the Canada Council for the Arts, the Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec.
