DARER OF DREAMS - Andre Dupont

As curator of the Gallerie D'Art du Centre Culturel in 1989, Andre directed his enthusiasm toward gathering artists from far and wide to share their techniques and inspirations. A conscious and sensitive man, Andre remains ever mindful of the rippling impact that the visible dedication of one can have on the community as a whole.

Andre's interaction with the artists in his own community, as well as his outreach to others, reveals a quality of reverence for artists and the arts for which Quebec is well known. Andre has contributed immeasurably to Drummondville's widespread reputation for supporting its arts community, in both word
and actions.

Reflecting his unique ability to be both discerning and receptive, his Arkangel is sculpted in an open stance. A quizzical, almost bewildered expression asks "how could we consider doing anything less?", echoing his belief that all passionate conviction is truly a force to be reckoned with.

If the angel deigns to come,
it will be because you have convinced him,
not by tears but by your humble resolve
to be always beginning,
to be a beginner.

-- Rainer Maria Rilke
