Melissa Mongiat awarded the Phyllis-Lambert Design Montréal Grant
The 2010 Phyllis-Lambert Design Montréal Grant has been awarded to Mouna Andraos and Melissa Mongiat. This $10, 000 grant will allow both artist-designers to travel to Berlin for a research and creative internship. They will also take this opportunity to visit the DMY design festival.
Melissa Mongiat participated in the BNL MTL 2009, presenting La conspiration du bien, a multi-platform public project. In November 2010 she will participate in the Biennale de Design de Saint-Etienne (France).

Roadsworth at Atelier Punkt
While an enthusiast of public spaces, Roadsworth is currently the subject of an exhibition at Atelier Punkt. His short-lived works are presented in situ in front of their gigantic stencils.
However, the artist's fans will not be disappointed as Roadsworth's outdoor pieces are also visible from the gallery's windows. The On&Off exhibition will remain in Montréal until the 21st of November.
Roadsworth produced a limited edition print for the BNL MTL 2009. Information concerning this print can be found on CIAC's website; a few prints are still available.
