There is not much to say about this industrial robot-looking design "Le Phare du Cosmos" (1967), which author is Yves Trudeau. It was created for Expo 67 and is located in St. Helen's Island in Parc Jean-Drapeau, Montréal, Quebec. It is massive, bold and safe. I would call it a landmark...by the way, not far from it was another, similar red monument....
which has a very complicated name and goes like that: Porte de l'amitié ou La Puerta de la amistad
This sculpture is made by Sebastián in 1993. It was a gift from Mexico for the 350th anniversary of Montreal's founding. Sebastián, one of Mexico's most prolific sculptors, created this “friendship gate” to represent exchange, passage, and opening. Sculpture erected on the Parterre of Île Sainte-Hélène.
