Loblaw Queens Quay - HMR Windows.

The windows overlooking at the loading dock of Redpath Sugar from the Meals-to-go section of the Queens Quay Loblaw. The bagel tree, the basket of fresh bake goods, the display size olive oil bottle and the ovens have jammed into the arched brick bay.

A week before they moved out from this office, the old medicine bottles from the last 100 years,
were covered with a light film of dust.

Henry Moore Unboxed At AGO

The temporary protective box around Two Large Forms, the Henry Moore sculpture that has sat at Dundas and McCaul since 1973, has been removed and the piece is again a familiar part of the city. It was moved to the south a few meters to accommodate the new addition but it will likely again fall into its roll as either: a nice piece of abstract sculpture for art lovers; a strange playground slide for children; or something OCAD students can lean up against when making out after a late night class. I often wonder if Moore knew that his piece would become a sort of art-ambassador, introducing people to abstract forms who might not otherwise go into the the AGO and see the rest of the collection — or maybe many did after seeing this piece. Toronto has a long relationship with Henry Moore that was mostly happy (the AGO houses the biggest public collection of Moore’s work in the world) but was sometimes contentious (as during the fight in the 1960s to install “The Archer” in front of New City Hall — quite a few people just didn’t want public money used on art — sounds familiar?). The role this piece plays reminds me of the Picasso sculpture found in the Daley Civic Center plaza in Chicago. A bit puzzling when first installed, but quickly becoming a loved part of the urban landscape, and one kids can play on. Two Large Forms at the AGO is a bit of a tease though — we can’t climb on any of his pieces inside, even though some of them seem to be asking for it.
