Summary:
Ce petit quartier de Montréal fut détruit en 1964. C’était, nous disait-on, la route du progrès qui devait passer là… Il s’agit du Village-aux-Oies, nommé aussi Goose Village ou plus officiellement Victoriatown. Il fut rasé de la carte comme le fut aussi le Faubourg à m’lasse — pour permettre entre autres la construction du pont Jacques-Cartier. À la place de ce(...)

Summary:
Ce petit quartier de Montréal fut détruit en 1964. C’était, nous disait-on, la route du progrès qui devait passer là… Il s’agit du Village-aux-Oies, nommé aussi Goose Village ou plus officiellement Victoriatown. Il fut rasé de la carte comme le fut aussi le Faubourg à m’lasse — pour permettre entre autres la construction du pont Jacques-Cartier. À la place de ce Village-aux-Oies, on bâtit une partie de l’autoroute Bonaventure et, pour Expo 67, l’Autostade, centre sportif qu’on détruisit pourtant rapidement dès 1980. Ce lieu est maintenant occupé par un stationnement et un terrain vague. Cela valait bien la peine de démanteler cette communauté… Ce quartier, situé dans la partie sud-ouest de Pointe-Saint-Charles, comportait une forte concentration de population d’origine italienne. C’est d’ailleurs là que la famille de la photographe Marisa Portolese s’était installée lors de son arrivée au pays. Marisa Portolese revient sur cette histoire de la modernité montréalaise qui eut un impact sur son histoire familiale. Elle a effectué un travail de recherche et de création photographique qui s’échelonne sur plusieurs années. Avec un essai par Vincent Bonin.

Summary:
L'avenue du Parc occupe un emplacement stratégique au coeur de l'île de Montréal. Au cours de son siècle et demi d'existence, l'avenue fut tour à tour un chemin privé menant à d'opulentes villas, la porte d'entrée du parc du Mont-Royal, une avenue résidentielle de prestige réservée aux classes privilégiées, le «boulevard des rêves» de plusieurs générations d'immigrants et l'axe d'une mobilisation citoyenne sans précédent pour empêcher la démolition d'un quartier patrimonial. Au fil des ans, l'avenue du Parc acquiert un caractère particulièrement hétéroclite en raison de l'enchevêtrement de ses multiples fonctions. Malgré cela, elle suscite un fort attachement, comme en témoignent les mobilisations provoquées par les tentatives de la renommer, sans équivalent dans l'histoire montréalaise. Yves Desjardins invite les lectrices et les lecteurs à la découverte de l'histoire d'une rue qui reflète l'évolution des valeurs associées à l'urbanité.

This collection of articles on the work and person of Rem Koolhaas introduces the Rotterdam-based architect with a simultaneous reference to his surrealist impulses and the disjointed nature of a career, in which books and exhibitions mark intellectual and formal turning points. Commentaries on these seminal moments are interspersed with critiques on the major buildings and projects. In the end, it is difficult to pinpoint which are more important in defining the architect’s conceptual and aesthetic trajectory. The book concludes with a detailed analysis of Koolhaas’s curatorship of the Venice Biennale, yet another swerve in a dazzling, provocative, and paradoxical itinerary.

Summary:
As early as 1934 Charlotte Perriand began to reflect on the architectural aspects of leisure activities for all, but it was with Les Arcs, her greatest work, that she completed her reflection on the art of living in the mountains. Alongside the developer Roger Godino, Charlotte Perriand displayed all the facets of her immense talent: design, urban planning, but also bioclimatic architecture, of which she was a pioneer. She had to deal with financial and time constraints in order to design most of the Arc 1600 and 1800. Thanks to her perseverance and growing inventiveness, her integration of architecture into the sites, her innovative and human approach to traffic, and the life she breathes into the resort, especially on the rooftops, she has made it a friendly place, in harmony with the environment. Thus, she designs the interior architecture of more than 4,500 homes, 25,000 beds, for an annual flow of more than one million people. Her wish to combine the art of living in the mountains with housing for the greatest number of people has been largely realized.

Que, tranquillement, pas vite, les normes culturelles changent, souvent de manière imperceptible, et qu’à un moment donné, il y a éruption, une cassure, et un moment de transformation radicale, et les choses ne sont plus comme avant. »
