Opening: Friday, February 24 from 5-8pm

The exhibition “Nitty Gritty: Male Toilet Angst”, from the series “Manscapes”, by Montreal photographer Evergon, features an impressive selection of Polaroid photographs, taken during Evergon’s many travels in search of clandestine gay cruising spots.

For a decade, at the turn of the millennium, the artist traveled around the world to record the traces of the men who frequent these secret meeting places for gay sex.

A rare record, Evergon’s striking and gritty photographs present images of the shady areas, worn spots, seats and Pissoirs, where bodies come together, marked by graffiti, porno drawings, messages left behind, and names scratched on surfaces.

Artist in attendance

“My nights during curfew were, like for many of us, long, very long. So, I got an attestation to go out and photograph Montreal deserted. Walking the streets, watching the silent workers and the lonely homeless with no one to pass them a coin or two. Even the police seemed unoccupied. In this slowness, a delivery person passed furtively, another parked, another was awaiting an order, then another, and still others. All of them with a cell phone in their hand.” – Emmanuelle Léonard.
