At times, the trees serve merely as elements of the scenery; while some manage to blend in, they often appear incongruous. People move through this setting without always noticing the trees surrounding them. It is as if humans and trees share the same space yet lead parallel lives, each in their own separate sphere. These reflections form the basis of the exhibition Paul Lewis presents here.<\/p>\n\n<p>Paul Lewis has been practicing photography since his teenage years, having discovered its appeal and its power to shape his view of the world. With a background in urban geography and urban planning, his photography bears the imprint of these disciplines. It draws upon\u2014and extends and enriches\u2014his experience as an urban planning professor (at the Universit\u00e9 de Montr\u00e9al), allowing him to explore the city&#8217;s multifaceted meanings in depth, using methods distinct from those of an academic. His photography is not documentary in nature: while the subject matter remains the same, the perspective adopted is no longer that of a researcher or professor.<\/p>\n\n<p>In recent years, he has held three solo exhibitions in Montreal, Saint-Mathieu-du-Parc, and Candiac. He also presented a duo exhibition at the National Assembly in Quebec City, where his photographs were accompanied by haikus written by author Suzanne Gigu\u00e8re.                                                              <\/p>\n\n<p>Elliot Erwitt states that &#8220;photography is an art of observation. It is about finding something interesting in an ordinary place.&#8221; These nondescript, often anonymous locations are found everywhere in cities. They lie at the heart of the photographs Paul Lewis is presenting at the Mus\u00e9e Beaulne. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-red-color\">Opening reception Sunday, september 13, 2026 from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m.<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":3824,"template":"","tags":[],"expo_category":[],"class_list":["post-3825","expositions-temporai","type-expositions-temporai","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Balade en for\u00eat - Beaulne Museum<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.museebeaulne.ca\/en\/temporary-exhibits\/balade-en-foret\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Balade en for\u00eat - Beaulne Museum\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Paul Lewis Paul Lewis invites us on a walk through the urban forests of various cities\u2014both local and international\u2014forests that are not natural in the conventional sense.
