Press release, A\u00e9roports de Montr\u00e9al<\/p>\n
Montr\u00e9al, March 15, 2017 – <\/strong>A\u00e9roports de Montr\u00e9al is pleased to be a featured partner of Art Public Montr\u00e9al\u2019s web site and to draw attention to several original works of art incorporated into the architecture of Montr\u00e9al-Trudeau airport.<\/p>\n “Public art is a way of recreating a vibrant and friendly atmosphere at Montr\u00e9al-Trudeau Airport while displaying the artistic innovation and cultural vitality of Montr\u00e9al,” says President and CEO Philippe Rainville.<\/p>\n ADM sees Montr\u00e9al-Trudeau not only as a reflection of the city, but also a cultural and artistic showcase. The Aerogalerie offers passengers and visitors a variety of Montr\u00e9al-centred exhibitions in different parts of the terminal. Paintings by old masters and other works are also scattered throughout the terminal.<\/p>\n In addition, works by Montr\u00e9al artists have been created specifically for the new section of the international terminal, which opened last May. The emphasis placed on visual arts and culture gives it a unique, Montr\u00e9al-specific character.<\/p>\n The centrepiece is an installation made of glass hanging from the ceiling. Called Veil of Glass<\/em>, it imitates a flock of large birds in flight while evoking the stained glass windows of Montr\u00e9al. With its play of lights, this sculpture, designed by the firm Atomic3, helps create a fun atmosphere in the terminal.<\/p>\n Elsewhere, two large works installed at the end of the large waiting area produce a striking effect. The mural YULFLY<\/em> by Alain Paiement brings to mind the view that we have before landing or during take-off. It is a mosaic composed of countless iconic images of Montr\u00e9al taken from the air. These images are printed on glass, backlit and arranged by colour to form a vast tableau.<\/p>\n The second piece, by Manon De Pauw, is entitled Incubator<\/em>. Illuminated from within, this cocoon calls for calm through the soft pulse that fills it, like breathing. It also alludes to the concept of business incubators, metaphorically referring to the creative spirit, vitality, and power of attraction that are unique to Montr\u00e9al.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n To see the Partner’s page: ADM.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n Video of the artists selected to produce these recently delivered works:<\/p>\n YULFLY<\/em>: http:\/\/bit.ly\/2mK4RIT<\/a> A\u00e9roports de Montr\u00e9al is the local airport authority that has been responsible for the management, operation, and development of the Montr\u00e9al-Trudeau and Montr\u00e9al-Mirabel international airports since 1992.
