Cet ouvrage revient en textes et en images sur la 15e Rencontre internationale d'art performance de Québec (RIAP. Organisée du 3 au 7 septembre 2008 par Le Lieu, centre en art actuel, dans le cadre des festivités du 400e anniversaire de la Ville de Québec, La Caravane de la parole fut une rencontre internationale de l'expression francophone mondiale, de la langue au geste. Envisagé comme un festival axé sur les territoires francophones, cet événement d'art vivant, d'action et d?intervention s'est voulu le reflet des liens et réalités de la francophonie contemporaine. L'art vivant et la poésie s'y sont affirmés au sein de dispositifs où se côtoient langage et action. Par l'expression, qu'elle soit orale ou active, en geste, ils révèlent des processus et des réalités identitaires à la fois uniques et communs.

Summary:
In the mid-1960s, Canadian artists suffered from cultural isolation as museums were indifferent to their work and the international art market seemed beyond reach. Artists made up for this state of exclusion by creating alternative spaces in which they could present experimental work and offer services to members of their communities. This collection of critical essays addresses an historical moment in which the investment of the concept of information by artists converged with the role of administrator they bestowed upon themselves. The historical trajectory of these self-managed organizations can now be observed in their archival fonds, where the results of partially realized utopias exist alongside material evidence of the artists’ labour. Following the decompartmentalization characterizing the period, the editorial structure of this publication provides equal visibility both to the sampling of documents and to the case studies based on the close reading of the concerned items. Essays by Anne Bénichou, Vincent Bonin, Marion Froger, Kristy A. Holmes, Primary Information, Felicity Tayler and David Tomas.

L’arrondissement historique et naturel du mont Royal est l’un des plus remarquables au Canada, sinon en Amérique du Nord, et le campus de l’Université de Montréal en constitue une composante essentielle. Étonnamment, il n’existait pas jusqu’ici un ouvrage qui en trace un portrait d’ensemble. C’est le défi qu’a relevé une équipe de la Chaire de recherche du Canada en patrimoine bâti de l’École d’architecture de la Faculté de l’aménagement. Ce guide s’intéresse à l’architecture, aux aménagements paysagers et aux paysages du campus depuis son implantation. Mais au-delà de la description des attributs physiques des lieux et de certains rappels historiques, les auteures ont voulu mettre en valeur les liens entre les différentes composantes.
