Présenté dans le cadre des célébrations du centenaire de Jean Paul Riopelle et de Montréal en lumière, le spectacle multimédia Riopelle symphonique invite le public à plonger au cœur de l’œuvre de l’artiste, au rythme d’une création musicale signée Serge Fiori et Blair Thomson, interprétée par l’Orchestre symphonique de Montréal, sous la direction d’Adam Johnson, et les Chœurs des Petits Chanteurs de Laval dirigés par Philippe Ostiguy et le chœur Temps Fort.

Conjuguant projections et scénographie audacieuse, le spectacle en cinq actes évoque les grandes périodes de la vie de l’artiste et de sa fructueuse carrière échelonnée sur sept décennies. Symbole de liberté et infatigable oiseau migrateur, l’emblématique oie sauvage guide le public à travers les lieux réels et imaginaires fréquentés par Riopelle, témoin privilégié de son geste créateur et de son inépuisable capacité de se réinventer. La direction artistique est signée par Nicolas Lemieux.

As part of the celebrations to mark the 100th anniversary of Jean Paul Riopelle’s birth, Riopelle symphonique takes audiences on a stunning multimedia odyssey through the artist’s works and inspirations. Set to the original music of Serge Fiori and Blair Thomson, the concert features the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal, the Chœur des Petits Chanteurs de Laval and the Temps Fort choir under conductor Adam Johnson.

Riopelle symphonique combines original musical composition with discovery as we revisit the works that marked the artist’s illustrious career. Together, the musical creation and visual environments evoke key periods in the artist’s life, from his early experimentations in Montréal to the closing chapter of his career—a time marked by his return to ‘the source’ (Isle-aux-Grues)—by way of post-war France, his encounters with Indigenous peoples and his deep connection with the Far North.

Visual concept and staging are by Marcella Grimaux (Noisy Head) under artistic director Nicolas Lemieux. An ingenious assembly of LED screens, whose varied sizes and configurations nod to the diverse formats of the master’s paintings, lets audiences both witness and be part of Riopelle’s creative gestures and inexhaustible capacity for reinvention.
