Notices
Mobility
Rue des Seagull is one-way between Macdonald Road and Parking lot P11 due to the establishment of a pedestrian detour that provides access to the Biosphere.
The work taking place at the Biosphere should be completed by early June 2025.
Delays and detours to be expected, reduce your speed and follow the directions of the traffic signs.
Signe solaire
Designed by Jean Le Fébure for Canada's Centennial exhibition in Toronto in 1967, the work was later loaned to the Man and His World exhibition. This sculpture is one of the few sculptural works by this artist who was primarily known as a painter and muralist.
In collaboration with a team of chemists at the Saclay nuclear centre in France, Le Fébure designed a new fibreglass-based material into which he amalgamated aggregates of stone and metal with epoxy and polyesters.
The artist concocted Signe solaire with this material by adding bronze filings. The work is designed to reflect the reality of a contemporary world through the use of cutting-edge production techniques.
Details
| Materials | Steel, concrete, fibre-glass, epoxy resin and bronze filings |
