EXHIBITIONS
Each year, Le Centre culturel francophone de Vancouver is proud to present five exhibitions of the works of talented francophone and francophile artists from British Columbia, and sometimes from other provinces. These exhibitions give sculptors, painters, photographers and multidisciplinary artists the opportunity to showcase their work professionally in the library of Le Centre for 1-2 months.
Each exhibition opens with a public wine and cheese reception, free of charge, where visitors can meet and talk to the artist.
Current exhibitions can be visited during the regular opening hours at Le Centre culturel francophone de Vancouver.

Between Lines and Horizons brings together a selection of photographs captured between Europe and the Pacific North West..
Through my (tele)photo lens, I’m always seeking to simplify what surrounds me : isolating a detail, a line or a silhouette to create more room for emptiness, silence and breath. Whether it’s a mountain bathed in light, a guiding line at the heart of the city, or the suspended motion of an athlete, each image becomes a way to slow down and look a little longer.
After growing up near Paris, I now call Vancouver home, and I shaped this series as a visual journey between here and elsewhere. Places shift and blend, but one constant remains: the pursuit of minimalism within landscapes natural, urban or athletic.
Matthieu Rocher
"I’m a French photographer based in North Vancouver. First drawn to landscapes through my travels across Europe, I gradually developed a more minimalist approach, playing with lines, horizons and isolated details. My priority is that the viewer immediately knows where to focus their eye when looking at one of my photographs.
Having grown up in the suburbs of Paris, my work naturally sits between nature and the city: mountains, quiet roads, refined urban scenes. As my personal evolution, I enjoy blending these two worlds, turning architecture into landscape, and landscapes into architectural composition.
Alongside my personal projects, I work as a photographer and videographer in sports and in the cultural/artistic fields, where I continue to refine the same minimalist eye."
