Project
AP001.S6.1947.PR02
Description:
Ce groupe contient des documents textuels, des dessins, des photographies et un artéfact en lien avec le processus de création et de construction du Palais des Nations-Unies à New-York entre 1947 et 1963. L’implication de Cormier dans ce projet est à deux niveaux : il a été consultant en tant que représentant du Canada pour l’élaboration du Palais des Nations-Unies et à aussi produit les portes d’entrée de l’assemblée. Il contient des dessins de développement du design, de présentation et d’exécution qui permettent de visualiser l’évolution de l’élaboration des portes d’entrée. Le groupe contient aussi plusieurs plans du bâtiment auquel Cormier fût consultant. Les documents textuels représentent surtout de la correspondance, des coupures de presse, des rapports, des factures, des procès-verbaux et des télégrammes qui nous informent sur son implication en tant que consultant sur le projet et la logistique entourant la construction des portes.

Project
AP041.S1.1976.D1
Description:
Les Maisons de la Rue Sherbrooke was both a site-specific installation/construction for Corrid’Art (1976), commissioned by the Programme art et culture, XXIe Olympiade, and a series of drawings and constructed photographs. The installation consisted of the construction of two full-sized facades of 19th century greystone town houses out of rough plywood and pipe scaffolding. The facades were erected in a vacant lot on Rue Sherbrooke, and mirrored the townhouses which still stood on the opposite side of the intersection. The constructed photographs of the same name, and also The Site, Les Maisons, 1976 and The Site Altered, Les Maisons, 1976, depict an intersection in which one side of the street mirrors the other perfectly. By reprinting the photograph, reversed and superimposed on itself, Charney fills a vacant lot with a suggestion of its past. One week after the installation of Les Maisons de la Rue Sherbrooke municipal authorities of the City of Montreal ordered it to be destroyed. Demolition began the night of July 13, 1976.
