VITRINE
Vitrine Exhibitions
The Art History Vitrine hosts month-long exhibitions dedicated to the public expression of art historical research, methods, and objects of study. Since 2006, professors and graduate students have curated installations in this display cabinet on themes as varied as Canadiana, print culture, postcards, as well as architectural drawings and models, often using original works of art by Concordia students.

Concordia’s Tunnel: Time for (Ad)dressing Surfaces
Students in ARTH 264 Ceramic Tiles (Ad)dressing Surfaces” submitted these tile installation designs as part of their final assignment. The students were tasked with developing their own tile installation that would improve the dismal, but frequently used, concrete tunnel connecting Concordia’s Library and EV Buildings and giving access to the STM Guy Metro station.
Previous exhibition
The Things We Brought, The Things They Never Said
Sepember-October 2025
EAHR (Ethnocultural Art Histories Research) is proud to present the vitrine exhibition, The Things We Brought, The Things They Never Said, on the themes of migration and diaspora.
This exhibition gathers the intimate fragments of migration: songs steeped in inherited grief, images composed of nostalgia and surreal memory, and artworks that turn food into a language of care. In a single vitrine, five artists from diasporic backgrounds examine what crosses borders—not just physically, but emotionally.
