With this catalogue you can immerse yourself in the visionary universe of M.C. Escher, where logic meets dream and mathematics embraces paradox. For the first time in Montréal, over 150 works of his genius take you on a journey through impossible perspectives, continuous metamorphoses, and worlds that defy reality.

Through more than one hundred works, the official catalog of the first major exhibition in Montreal. The entire artistic journey of M.C. Escher (1898–1972), from his early training and travels in Italy to the complex technical experiments that made him an artist admired even in scientific circles. The volume reconstructs M.C. Escher’s visual and conceptual universe: a space where nature, art, science, and mathematics intertwine in a fascinating and dizzying balance. His works – true architectures of the imagination – continue to influence our contemporary gaze, becoming part of the collective imagination through textbooks, magazines, design, and pop culture. Trained as a graphic artist, M.C. Escher created around 450 prints, each with a distinctive style and extraordinary precision. His creations speak not only to art lovers but also to those passionate about geometry, mathematics, visual sciences, architecture, and graphic design.
