Originally from Quebec City, Roy-Bois is based in Vancouver. He received his BFA from Université Laval in Quebec (1996) and a Masters Degree in Fine Arts from Concordia University in Montréal (2001). His installations have been shown across Canada and internationally. Recent solo exhibitions include J’ai moonwalké, sans cesse, jusqu’à l’épuisement at Parisian Laundry, Montreal (2014); I had a great trip despite a brutal feeling of cognitive dissonance at Artspeak, Vancouver (2012); and the touring Polarizer, Robert McLaughlin Gallery, Oshawa (2009), Southern Alberta Art Gallery, Lethbridge (2009), and Rodman Hall Gallery, St. Catharines (2010); and Let us, then be up and doing, with a heart for any fate, still achieving, still pursuing, learn to labor and to wait, Contemporary Art Gallery, Vancouver (2008). He is the recipient of numerous grants and awards and teaches at the University of British Columbia Okanagan campus.

Discount parking passes will be available for sale starting at 6:30 p.m. See “visiting” on CUAG’s web site for details.
