A multidisciplinary artist and a graduate in production from the National Theatre School of Canada in 1979, Michel Lemieux continues to astonish with the breadth of his creative range. In 1980, he took part in a group exhibition entitled TRACES\/TRACKS<\/em> presented at the Mus\u00e9e d\u2019art contemporain de Montr\u00e9al. It was during this time that he met \u00c9douard Lock, a young choreographer of the new dance movement in Montreal. Lemieux then became a composer\/performer for LA LA LA Human Steps<\/em> alongside Louise Lecavalier. In 1982, Michel created the performances LE TYMPAN DE LA CANTATRICE<\/em> and L\u2019\u0152IL RECHARGEABLE<\/em> at Galerie V\u00e9hicule Art and toured them across Canada and France. In 1984, Lemieux\u2019s solo multidisciplinary show SOLIDE SALADE<\/em> made a lasting impact on both national and international performing arts scenes, touring stages across four continents for years.<\/p>

In 1990, he co-founded Lemieux Pilon 4D ART with Victor Pilon, launching a body of work where meaning and emotion are heightened by innovative technologies. Notable productions include GRAND HOTEL DES \u00c9TRANGERS<\/em> (Mus\u00e9e d\u2019Art Contemporain de Montr\u00e9al), ORF\u00c9O<\/em> (Usine C), and ANIMA<\/em> (Fonderie Darling), all of which toured extensively on the international stage.<\/p>

In 2014, the digital installation DREAMSCAPES was presented at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts to celebrate the 30th anniversary of 4D Art. In addition, Lemieux co-directed the theatre shows LA TEMPE\u0302TE, LA BELLE ET LA BE\u0302TE and ICARE, created at the THE\u0301A\u0302TRE DU NOUVEAU-MONDE, and NORMAN, created at PLACE DES ARTS' 5e salle. These latter shows have also been presented on numerous international tours, as have several of his other creations at the frontiers of the digital and performing arts.<\/p>

Lemieux also co-wrote with Pilon the major arena touring shows DELIRIUM and TORUK for CIRQUE DU SOLEIL, each of which toured the world for four years. In addition, Lemieux co-designed and directed CONTINUUM, an immersive dome narrative film for MONTREAL'S new RIO TINTO ALCAN PLANETARIUM.<\/p>

Since 2016, Lemieux has co-created and produced CITE\u0301 ME\u0301MOIRE MONTRE\u0301AL, the world's largest urban projection route, deployed throughout Montre\u0301al. More recently, he designed and produced CITE\u0301 ME\u0301MOIRE POINTE-AUX-TREMBLES and CITE\u0301 ME\u0301MOIRE CHARLEVOIX.<\/p>

In addition, Lemieux created and produced the PARCOURS INSITU AR augmented reality trail, a digital cultural trail featuring 17 of Montreal's cultural institutions, and the \nINSITU WALL, an interactive wall projected outdoors on one of the walls of the Maison symphonique de Montre\u0301al and on the The\u0301a\u0302tre Hector-Charland in l'Assomption. These latest creations are still being presented today.<\/p>

Michel Lemieux's solo career with 4D Art has also been marked by numerous creations and achievements, including his first performances, THE DISSOLUTION OF LADY MACBETH, a digital work commissioned by the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts to open the exhibition Thierry Mugler: Couturissime, which was seen by over 1.2 million visitors in Montreal, Rotterdam, Munich, Paris and Brooklyn.<\/p>

Since 2020, Michel Lemieux has created several narrative works in virtual reality, including INTOUCH\u00c9, INVISIBLE<\/em> and ICARUS<\/em>. The latter was showcased at numerous film festivals around the world, including the CANNES XR Festival. These works have been brought together in the ESPACE 4D ART<\/em>, a virtual space where digital art extends the realm of performing arts, created as part of the PIONNIERS NUM\u00c9RIQUES<\/em> exhibition organized by the CENTRE PHI<\/em> for the 60th anniversary of PLACE DES ARTS<\/em> in the fall of 2023. Michel also conceived, directed, and co-wrote with Denis Morin<\/a> the nighttime walking trail ONIRO<\/em><\/a>, presented since June 2025 at Parc OM\u00c9GA. This trail features 17 projection scenes, offering a total of 60 minutes of immersion into the dreams of the park\u2019s animals.<\/p>

Michel continues to expand his creative universe with many new creations to come.<\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
