#5 • Highways, Concrete and Art
Update: 2013-07-20
Description
Host Bettina Forget chats with Montreal artist Michel Martino about his fascination with the Turcot interchange, a crumbling concrete behemoth despised by most Montrealers but, according to Michel, one of the city’s most beautiful pieces of architecture. Horrid highway or underappreciated urban icon? You decide.
And, as per usual, at the end of the hour Bettina has a few recommendations of exhibitions you should check out in the galleries Belgo building.
Music for this episode is, fittingly, Autobahn by Kraftwerk (taken from the original 22-minute version).
