Hydro wants art for Irish site
Hydro-Quebec wants to buy a piece of art created in Granby for its projected Irish memorial site down by the Black Rock. Radio-Canada calls it a mural, but it looks more like a mosaic to me. It’s by Alfred Pellan but it looks like a child’s drawing, so it’s not surprising to learn that it was done for a grade school that’s about to be demolished – you can see it here on Streetview. If Hydro insists on moving the Rock – and I wish they wouldn’t – this piece of art will not dignify the site.
