Mandoline Hybride

Mandoline Hybride's mission is to develop contemporary art in its various forms, with dance as its anchor. Since it was founded in 2007, Mandoline Hybride's research, production and dissemination projects aim to (re)think the place and scope of art in society, from critical perspectives. Highlighting emerging artists and paying attention to the inclusion of diverse voices are priorities for the organization. Under the artistic direction of its founder, Priscilla Guy, the company is developing sustainable partnerships at both local and international levels. The organization's values are embodied in four permanent programs:

Regards Hybrides
Founded in 2012 by Priscilla Guy and Claudia Hébert, the project aims to foster the articulation, development and outreach of practices and discourses at the frontier of dance and cinema. With its web platform, collection, international biennial and services for artists and presenters, Regards Hybrides is the only project of its kind in Canada.

Salon58
Established in 2018 by Priscilla Guy and Benoit Paradis in Marsoui, Gaspésie, Salon58 is dedicated to hosting artists-in-residence and intimate concert programming. Focusing on artistic experimentation and proximity to the audience, the project encourages encounters on a human scale in rural and remote regions.

FURIES - contemporary dance festival
Under the artistic direction of Priscilla Guy, Sébastien Provencher and Karla Etienne, FURIES is a contemporary dance festival based in Marsoui on the Gaspé Peninsula since 2019 that showcases hard-hitting choreographic forms in the everyday landscape.

L'Hybride - café & bookshop
More than just a café, L'Hybride functions as a hub that enables Mandoline Hybride to innovate, consolidate its initiatives, put them into action and share them.
