Josee Tellier: "HurriKen 29"

This limited-edition silkscreen print by JOSÉE TELLIER was created to celebrate the Montréal Canadiens' 110th anniversary and commemorates the February 29, 2020, game against the Carolina Hurricanes. Raised in a family of boys only, Josée Tellier was always around sports, especially hockey and baseball. Canadiens and Expos hold a special place in her heart. When came the offer of honoring the 110th anniversary of her beloved Canadiens through an illustration, it was a dream come true. Score! "HurriKen 29" mixes the classic imagery of Ken Dryden, and one of her favorite games as a child: the Coleco table hockey game! Dryden being bigger than life, she thought of showing him blocking the way, making it impossible for Hurricane players to score a goal. It was meant to be: February 29th, and Dryden's retired number 29.
