Projet
Numéro de référence:
AP075.S1.1999.PR02
Description:
Project series documents Cornelia Hahn Oberlander's landscape project for the proposed Commonwealth Square of the Art Gallery of Hamilton, on Main Street West in Hamilton, Ontario. Oberlander worked on this project in 1999-2002 while the architectural firm Kuwabara, Payne, McKenna, Blumberg Architects was in charge of the building's renovations. The building was completed in 2005, but Oberlander's proposal for the landscaping redesign of Commonwealth Square was not realized. Oberlander's first proposal consisted in adding an oval-shaped mounded lawn in the centre of a paved plaza situated between the art gallery and Main Street West. A second proposal also documented in this project series included two curved access ramps leading to a terrace next to the building with trees planting at the far edge of the plaza and along the street and the underground parking entrance. The project series contains design development drawings for Oberlander's landscaping, such as sketches, sections, landscape plans and renderings. The project series also includes renderings and working drawings for the building by KPMB architectural firm, and building plans for the existing building used as reference. The project is also documented through correspondence, including with clients, architects and consultants, Oberlander's concept notes, documents related to the plant selection, financial documents, documentation on the art gallery, and press clippings and articles on the project. It also comprises photographs of the existing landscaping on Main Street West plaza, including the Irving Zucker Sculpture Court.

Description:
The sub-series documents the exhibition "Il Ritorno Dei Re" designed by Pettena and presented at the Refettorio di Santa Maria Novella, in Florence in 1980. The exhibition presented the heads of the Carolingian kings statues, originally part of the facade of Notre-Dame de Paris cathedral, that were removed after the French Revolution and later replaced by new sculptures by Viollet-le-Duc. The statues heads, rediscovered during excavation work in Paris, then toured museums in Europe and in the United States, including in Florence. Pettena's design managed "to evoke, through a cunning use of light, the “presence” of the kings, as the heads stood out as the only illuminated elements in a setting that, precisely because of its imposing character, was kept in semidarkness." [1] The sub-series contains Pettena's draft exhibition proposal, with plans, concept development notes, research and a section of the Refettorio di Santa Maria Novella showing the exhibition space.

AP018.S1.1975.PR08
Description:
This project series documents the design and planning for the third stage of the expansion of the Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO) in Toronto in 1975. The office identified the project number as 7515. This proposed project conceived the further expansion of the AGO after the completion of Stage I and Stage II, which began in 1969 and 1972 respectively. Stage III would build upon completed areas of the building to enlarge gallery, office, performance, and activity spaces. Among the proposed spaces were the satirical art gallery, a Canadian sculpture gallery, a staff lounge, and the enlargement of the library. The largest addition would be to the south of the gallery, directly west of the Grange mansion. The project would also include continuation of exterior walls and masking of the mechanical penthouse on top of the gallery. At the beginning of December 1975, the AGO suddenly asked Parkin Architects Planners to halt design work on the Stage III expansion, citing a lack of financial stability as the cause. However, conversation between the AGO and Parkin on resuming the project continued for years after. It should be noted that while AGO project contracts were originally given to John B. Parkin Associates, John C. Parkin continued the project under his new firm, Parkin Architects Planners, after parting ways with partner John B. Parkin in 1971. The project is recorded through drawings and textual records dating from 1973-1976. The drawings show preliminary ideas and design work for the project, while the textual records consist of correspondence and meeting minutes.
