How can construction be an instrument of peace? Post-conflict cities share many problems such as spontaneous construction and a lack of strong civil governance, thus even well-intended projects under these conditions risk fixing inequalities permanently or introducing new ones in the built environment. Can architecture, beyond solving a direct need or problem, add to(...)

Description:
Cette série contient des documents de deux natures. D'abord, les 26 photographies que Blaise Marchand a colligées alors qu'il était architecte en chef pour l'entretien au ministère des Travaux publics du Québec (1945-1968), illustrent principalement les différentes décorations temporaires installées sur les façades de l'Hôtel du Parlement à Québec, et dans les environs, à l'occasion d'événements spéciaux entre 1949 et 1960 [1963]. Pour la grande majorité, les photographies ont été réalisées par le Service de ciné-photographie de l'Office provincial de publicité du Québec, mais aussi par le ministère des Travaux publics - Service des architectes, ainsi que par le photographe Michel, photographie artistique et commerciale (Québec) et par le studio Photo Montcalm (Québec). Ensuite, les trois publications et le manuscrit ([1956]-1963) conservés dans la série documentent l'intérêt que Marchand portait à l'urbanisme et à la conservation et la restauration du patrimoine bâti. Les titres entre guillemets ont été tirés des légendes qui accompagnaient les photographies lorsque les documents sont arrivés aux archives.
