"Armature"

The structure in the landscape is at the centre of Mansel's new series "Armature".

*** QUEBEC IN DESIGN ***

- 75 years of works from the collection of the Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec -

This project, the outcome of the first collaborative effort by the Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec and the Centre de design de l’Université du Québec à Montréal, has two purposes. The first is to provide an overview of the history of design in Québec, from the interior decorators of the 1930s and the entrenchment of design in the aftermath of World War II to the period of effervescence surrounding Expo '67 in Montréal. The second, to which more than half the exhibition is dedicated, is to examine the contemporary period in design, sequenced to enable exploration of design landscapes from the late 1970s to the present. To date, no other large-scale exhibition has delved into the different forms of Québec design and, by extension, its place in Québec society. The exhibition will present original objects and documents as well as photographs, and sound and film clips document ing the ephemeral work.
