Karl Lemieux

Karl LEMIEUX (1980, Canada) has directed and produced cutting-edge time-based media art since the early 2000s. His films, installations and performances have screened internationally in museums, galleries, music venues and film festivals, including the Montreal Contemporary Arts Museum, the Museum of Modern Art in San Francisco and the Venice International Film Festival. His collaboration with sound artists and musicians such as BJ Nilsen, Philip Jeck and Godspeed You! Black Emperor has made him an essential voice in avant-garde cinema and art. Maudite Poutine/Shambles (2016) was his first feature-length narrative film, premiered in the Orizzonti competition in Venice and screened at IFFR in 2017.
