5 Montreal art exhibits that should be on your radar for March! Man, Montreal’s art beat is a-hoppin’ and a-boppin’ this month. You got your Art Matters festival (still shakin’ a leg until March 21), Art Souterrain (catch it before it seeps back into the earth, on March 15), as well as a gazillion other individual exhibits all jump-jivin’ away. Wanna get in on the action, but not sure where to start? Here’s a sample of shows to kick off your spring culture crawl.

1. Aude Moreau: La ligne bleue At Galerie Antoine Ertaskiran (Until April 18)

Aude Moreau, La ligne bleue (maquette), 2014

Lordy, Ms. Moreau – you are totally on fleek. Check you out at Galerie Antoine Ertaskiran, with your forebodingly beautiful exhibit of climatic doom. As night falls, La ligne bleue traces a 65-metre high horizontal line across the neon-lit windows of New York skyscrapers (pointedly located in the Financial district). This ominous line represents the rising sea level, an illustration of what could happen if all the ice on the planet were to melt and waterlog civilization. Word to the wise: Also be sure to swing by La Galerie de l’UQAM for their presentation of Aude Moreau’s La nuit politique, showcasing a body of the artist’s work developed over seven years (on until April 11).

2. Reynold Reynolds: Almost Six Pieces At DAZIBAO (Until April 18)
