À louer / For RentBrightening City Streets with ArtIt’s a win-win proposition: Promote the work of artists while recognizing they have a role toplay in building their city and improving the quality of life for us all. Some parts of Montréal(rue Centre, Saint-Jacques Market, rue Ontario Est, boulevard Monk and rue Hochelaga)already know what the À louer / For Rent program does. It puts the works of emergingartists into vacant commercial spaces.Launched five years ago by UMA, Maison de l’image et de la photographie, the initiativeforms temporary and innovative business partnerships with merchants, landlordsand commercial developers. The benefits of À louer / For Rent are numerous andsignificant, not only for contemporary artists and photographers but for all, in thereduction of vacancy times in buildings and improvement of their appearance,community revitalization and neighbourhood interaction, thus achieving theobjectives of Agenda 21.14
German Culture Thrives…In the Show District!The Goethe-Institut Montréal, part of the vast international culturalnetwork of the Federal Republic of Germany, celebrated its 50 th anniversarywith new beginnings. The venerable institution has movedits home to the corner of Ontario and Saint-Laurent, in the heart ofQuartier des Spectacles.Its ground floor offices open directly onto the city’s street life, enhancingthe flow of German culture into the Montréal mainstream … andvice versa. Walk inside and the exchange deepens. In addition to theclassrooms, offices and library, the new configuration (designed byAtelier TauTem) includes a multimedia room and a projection surface.This is no ordinary screen: it can be seen inside and outside the building.The showings of German media arts fit easily into the flash of theQuartier des Spectacles.The loft-style interior is owed to Montréal architects and furnishedby German designers Konstantin Grcic and Dieter Rams. Walking in,you are greeted by a harmonious blend of glass, wood and concrete,predominantly in white with vibrant colour punctuations.15
