Echoes of Art and Design
On the occasion of its 30th anniversary, Latitude Nord—longtime partner of Desjardins Bherer—presented an exclusive installation celebrating Minotti, the first high-end Italian brand to join its circle of distinction.
For Marc Bherer, the moment was the perfect opportunity to bring together two worlds: design and art. Minotti creations were elevated alongside works drawn from Galerie Blouin Division, a leading reference in Québec contemporary art and a trusted collaborator of the firm. He orchestrated an unprecedented encounter between the refinement and excellence of the great Italian house and the creative vitality of Québec and Canadian artists.
The idea crossed the Atlantic. The Minotti family itself—guardian of the brand’s aesthetic integrity—approved every element of the installations. A rare gesture that speaks to the close relationship built over the years. Pairing artworks with such iconic pieces requires more than aesthetic sensibility: it demands an understanding of the furniture’s DNA and a respect for its lines.
This installation reflects the approach of Desjardins Bherer: it is in the meeting of architecture, furniture, and art that a space finds its fullest expression.
The Art of Staging
Eight vignettes. Eight atmospheres. And in each, carefully selected works engage in dialogue with Minotti creations, transforming the Latitude Nord space into a gallery where design and contemporary art converse.
