Œuvres du prix de Rome
AP066.S4
Description:
Cette série rassemble les documents produits par Jacques Rousseau dans le cadre du Prix de Rome (1988), soit: les esquisses préparatoires et les gravures blanches (sans encre) qui illustrent un projet de "Nouveau-Port" pour Montréal, et les dessins à la craie sèche sur papier intitulés "Mémoire virtuelle ...". On y retrouve également des avenues de projet qui n'ont pas été développées, "Étude du flanc est du Mont-Royal" et projet de "Boucliers de papier", et des documents issus de l'exposition intitulée Montréal vue de Rome présentée à la Maison Coloniale en mai 1990. Le dossier contient des dessins, des documents textuels, des documents photographiques et un artéfact. Description du projet par l'architecte: "Amorcé en 1985, lors de la consultation publique concernant le Vieux-Port de Montréal, "le projet du Nouveau Port" complète son cycle alors que je séjourne à Rome à titre de Prix de Rome du Conseil des Arts du Canada. Prétexte par excellence pour réfléchir sur l'espoir et la transformation de Montréal, le sujet du Nouveau Port m'est apparu comme le moyen d'informer une approche de la transformation de la ville. J'ai pensé le projet possible, nécessaire même et j'ai plongé." Jacques Rousseau, "Le projet du Nouveau Port", ARQ : Architecture-Québec, nº 67, p. 30.
