Résumé:
The Jean-Louis Cohen fonds, 1968 – 2023, documents the projects and activities of historian, curator, professor, and architect Jean-Louis Cohen (1949 – 2023). Cohen’s research focus was largely modern architecture and transnational architectural exchange, particularly between and among the United States, Europe, and the former Soviet Union in the 20th century. Through physical and digital records, this fonds documents his academic, publishing, and curatorial work along with his professional activities within architectural research and heritage organizations, as well as his architectural practice.

Description:
La série document le dôme géodésique Senneville Barn Dome, dit aussi The Barn Dome. Conçu par la firme Jeffrey Lindsay & Associates, il fut construction en 1954. La série contient une photographie montrant, depuis l'intérieur, la structure géodésique de bois dont l'un des triangles est recouvert d'une membrane de fibre de verre qui enveloppait la structure à l'origine, aujourd'hui disparue et remplacée par des feuilles de métal peint. On aperçoit de plus la silhouette d'un homme travaillant à assembler la structure, vraisemblablement le propriétaire du terrain et client John Hackney, qui a commandé à Jeffrey Lindsay (Montréal, 1924-Los Angeles, 1984), architecte, le dôme en question pour s'en servir comme étable. La photographie est accompagné d'un dossier documentaire contenant des photocopies de documents tirés des archives de Senneville (Plot Plan, Application for Permit to Build, Memorendum) et deux photographies récentes de l'édifice (Robert Duchesnay, photographe, avril 2004).

Description:
This project series documents the Van der Vennepark, Schilderswijk-west in The Hague, The Netherlands. While the records were held in the office’s archives this project was assigned the number 32/80. The office assigned the date 1985 to this project. This small park was designed in connection to the housing and shopping complex in Schilderswijk (see project series AP178.S1.1984.PR03 in this fonds) as part of an urban renewal program in The Hague. Siza also designed the urban plan for Deelgebied Zone 5, Schilderswijk-West and the Punt en Komma social housing for the same urban renewal program. He would later design the residential settlement in Schilderswijk [Plano de Doedijnstraat]. The project was not realized. The project series contains a small amount of material. Documenting the park are plans and details, including reprographic copies, for seating arrangements, ramps, a pedestrian exit, as well as reprographic copies showing the housing and shopping complex in relation to the park. Also included is a written description of the project. This project series also contains information related to the housing and shopping complex.
