LOCAL NEWS Montreal Festival replaces Sunday in the Park Bonnie Todd his year, Sunday in the Park will be replaced by 1 the Festival de la Musique de Montréal, an all- day event featuring 19 bands, arts and crafts, carnival games and a barbecue among other activities this Sunday, Aug.3 in NDG Park.Among the headline attractions is Westmounter George Bowser, who will bring his unique brand of musical comedy to the outdoor show.Other Westmounters on the @ include Shane Murphy and Amanda Mabro.\u201cThe Jazz Festival makes Montreal music famous but nothing is making Montreal artists famous,\u201d said Stephen Laudi, one of the organizers of the event.According to Laudi, the goal of the festival is to showcase live performances of local artists and support artistic initiatives such as reopening the Cinema V as a cultural centre.Around 15 artists will exhibit their work in the park, along with live improv theatre and mural painting.Many local groups are involved in the event and have contributed to promoting Montreal artists, including Ya- Man 1280 AM radio, the Music Lovers Coalition, Kops Crew and Friends of Cinema V.\u201cThis really is a collaborative effort,\u201d said Laudi, referring to the numerous artists, volunteers and businesses involved with the project.The festival begins at noon on Sunday and ends at 10 p.m.The Park is located at the corner of Sherbrooke Street and Girouard Avenue in nearby NDG.Regardless of the weather, organizers are hoping the many activities geared at all ages will attract lots of support.The event is headed by the Community Economic Development and Education Network (CEDEN), a local group committed to helping new businesses and supporting community based projects.Other CEDEN initiatives include the preservation of the Queen Elizabeth Hospital.Phone \u2018test\u2019 scam targets long distance accounts Bonnie Todd current telephone scam has prompted Westmount's Public Security director to warn residents against giving out any information over the phone.Calls are being made to private residences and companies from people claiming to be AT&T or Bell technicians.They claim they are conducting tests of the lines, and in order to complete this \u2018test\u2019 they ask the person answering to dial 90, followed by the pound sign (#).It is strongly urged that people do not comply.In doing so, this gives the culprits full access to the telephone line, therefore allowing them to place long distance phone calls illed to that phone.é Public Security Director Richard McEnroe first heard of the scam through the Internet and confirmed the information with the Ontario Police Department.According to McEnroe, no one in Westmount has fallen victim to this scam so far, but he warns residents to be alert.\u201cDon\u2019t give out any information whatsoever,\u201d McEnroe advises.He suggests that anyone affected by this scam should contact their telephone company immediately.For additional information, contact the Westmount Public Security Department at 989-5307.# 1 PR 3, SED * WEERTIVIO SG nna Suit http://www.royallepage.ca westmount! @royallepage.ca 40336919 REALTOR MUHC downsizes hospital plan Martin C.Barry he McGill University Health Centre's I superhospital in the Glen Yards won't be as massive as initially planned because of the addition of a second site.David Culver Quebec Health Minister Philippe Couillard says the province is prepared to contribute a maximum of $800 million towards the construction of the MUHC.The government expects the MUHC to raise $200 million more on its own.In March, 2002, when the MUHC\u2019s planners unveiled their initial concepts for a single-site health campus, the cost was estimated at $1.2 billion.Couillard said last week that the province does not consider the concept of one large hospital to be safe.He expects the MUHC to include the Montreal General Hospital in its plans as a second complementary site.Couillard was also concerned about access by traffic to the Glen Yards site, which could require as much as $100 million in roadway construction.\u201cA green light for the Glen Project is good news,\u201d MUHC board chairman David Culver, a Westmount resident, said in a statement issued last week in reaction to the - minister\u2019s comments.The MUHC had been considering the possibility of two hospital sites as much as a year ago, he added.While the MUHC\u2019s budget is smaller, Sheila Moore, the superhospital\u2019s director of communications, pointed out in an interview that Quebec\u2019s contribution has not gone down.\u201cI think in a sense significant reduction is the media\u2019s interpretation,\u201d she said.\u201cThe government\u2019s contribution under the PQ was also $800 million.\u201d Jean B.Dufresne, the MUHC's chief planning officer, told The Examiner that ACCORDING TO G.M.R.B.STATISTICS ROYAL LEPAGE cet III HERITAGE Courtier immobilier agréé Franchise indépendante et autonome de Royal LePage IN WESTMOUNT the planning department is now working on a two-site concept.As a result, he added, increased traffic-\u2014which was expected to be generated in areas surrounding the Glen Yards\u2014would now probably be significantly reduced.\u201cWe were not planning on having much impact to start with,\u201d he said.\u201cBut for whatever impact there would have been, it's fair to say there will be less.\u201d Dufresne also confirmed that the addition of a second site to the project will reduce the size of construction taking place in the Glen Yards.\u201cA two-site scenario would involve less construction on the Glen (site).\u201d he said, while adding that the finished work in the Glen Yards would only be \u201cmarginally\u201d smaller.\u201cWe're planning on making it less high,\u201d said Dufresne, referring to concerns residents of NDG and Westmount had expressed about the towering pavilions the MUHC originally wanted to build.\"We were planning on adapting our plan to reduce the hcight regardless of the two- site scenario because people asked for it and we think we can accommodate them.\u201d Westmount Borough President Karin Marks said last week that the borough council never questioned the merits of the MUHC project, but had serious concerns about the impact on Westmount of an institution that size.\u201cThe greatest impact will be the impact of traffic and so access is extremely important,\u201d she said.\u201cIf it comes through the city streets, which is very difficult to do, it will cause some problems.But also the kind of highway (link) that they're talking about will add more traffic along the southern part of Westmount where we're already looking at a sound barrier because there\u2019s so much noise and pollution that comes from there.\u201cIf you look at the sight, access is very difficult,\u201d Marks added, referring to the highway access and its elevated cost.\u201cIf you don\u2019t do something like that, how are you going to get access for the thousands of people who come in every day?The only other access they've talked about is Decarie\u2014and it can\u2019t accommodate that kind of traffic\u2014and St.Jacques.And they're not ideal access points.\u201d The MUHC\u2019s Glen Yards site \u201chas tremendous problems in terms of access, for us and for NDG, and to some extent for St.Henri, as well,\u201d she added.\u201cI'm not sure how they're going to resolve that.Perhaps if it\u2019s a smaller project they'll be able to find another way.\u201d atu NOOINLISIM FHL \u20ac beg

significant increases next year as a result of a new City of Montreal valuation roll being issued in September.The Centre City\u2019s valuation department is expected to release the new three-year property roll on Sept.10.Going into effect in January, the listing will become the standard reference for iculating tax bills of all property owners on ontreal Island for 2004, 2005 and 2006.Although the roll\u2019s contents are considered top secret until they are released, speculation has been mounting that the total valuation of properties in Montreal is going to rise dramatically because of a real estate boom which has taken place here over the past few years.In areas of the city like Westmount.sheltered from high taxes prior to merger when it was an independent municipality, property valuation increases are expected to exceed the average for the city by a significant amount.Taxes are expected to rise for several years until a cap decreed by the provincial government has been reached.In January, property owners in more than a dozen former Montreal Island REPERCUSSION THEATRE SHAKESPEARE-IN-THE-PARK suburbs, including Westmount, could receive tax bills 10 per cent higher than last year.\u201c1 think there's no question\u2014we will have a significant increase,\u201d said Westmount Borough President Karin Marks.\"The property values in Westmount have gone up a great deal over the last three vears.I think evervone's aware of that.\u201d Despite the anticipated increase, Marks said that a provision included in Bill 170.the provincial legislation which created the megacity.could attenuate the impact.\u201cBill 170 had said that each community would go up by no more than five per cent a year,\u201d she said.\"So if it is applied the way it should be then it would be taken into account that the valuations have increased.\u201d However, Marks added, all 27 boroughs in the city are supposed to eventually reach a common mill rate.\u201cSo, of course, if that\u2019s the case and we get to that target rate, even if it takes another seven, eight or nine years\u2014 whatever it takes when the evaluations have gone up so significantly\u2014 because the five per cent increase is not going to be a cap that will be left on forever\u2014we will be paying an incredible amount more than we were prior to mergers,\u201d said Marks.CFCF cav ce radian

sector.During the early mor ning hours of June 24, Sgt.Greg Cockerell observed the pair vandalizing a private water fountain and pond in a yard near the corner of Elm Avenue and Sherbrooke Street.According to a report tabled in Westmount's borough council earlier this month, the individuals ran off upon spotting Cockerell's yellow Public Security vehicle.After other Public Security patrols and the Montreal police were contacted for backup, the suspects subsequently turned themselves into police and were placed under arrest.Burglars assault visitors Friends visiting the home of an Abbott Avenue resident last month were assaulted by armed burglars in the middle of a robbery.\"The person who lives there was on vacation and some of his friends went over,\" said Cst.Julie Jutras, a Station 12 community relations officer.describing the incident which took place around 11 p.m.on June 24.When they entered the home, the victims encountered three English-speaking men in their 20s, around 175 cm.tall, who were in the process of burglarizing the home.\"The four people went in the house looking for the friend and were met by the three guys,\" Jutras said.\"They were told to lie down, they were gagged, tied and hit and told not to look.One of the suspects had a gun.One (victim) was hit with the gun.\" The thieves subsequently fled with computer equipment.RET TA

EXAMINER - Thursda But is it Shakespeare?hree cheers for Repercussion Theatre! After I sweating through a long period of financial uncertainty last year, the venerated and much-appreci- ated Shakespeare in the Park series has returned for another summer of highbrow entertainment\u2014sort of.For several years, local audiences have been treated to outdoor productions of the Bard's classic Wayne Larsen - works\u2014fairly = sions of the familiar plays presented with energy and reverence, not to mention admirable production values despite the troupe\u2019s rather limited budget.Last year, after a much-publicized struggle to survive financially, Repercussion Theatre was saved by a wide variety of private and public benefactors, including British actor Michael York, who flew in to star in a successful benefit show.They celebrated their new lease on life by launching another series of Shakespeare in the Park productions, this time featuring the very funny \u2018Complete Works of William Shakespeare, Abridged\u2019.This frantic, 90-minute send-up caused many ardent Shakespeare enthusiasts and English majors to gasp in horror\u2014but most couldn't help laughing despite themselves.It may have been a far cry from textbook Bard, but the important thing was that the players had survived their financial crisis and were back in costume and up on a stage in the park, where they belonged.Now, this summer's playbill sees the popular troupe venturing even further down that same road, heading further and further away from Shakespeare proper.Yes, \u2018Shakespeare: The Lost Play\u2019 is funny, irreverent, well- written and very well-performed, but it is certainly not Shakespeare.One member of last weekend's audience went so far as to call the production an outright travesty.There, as they say, is the rub.It can be argued that Shakespeare\u2019s plays are old hat, having been done to death throughout the centuries with very little variation.Ever since Orson Welles\u2019s Mercury Theatre mounted a modern version of \u2018Julius Caesar\u2019 in 1937, updated versions have become increasingly common on film and upon the stage, not to mention countless spoofs.It is therefore difficult to justify mounting \u2018Shakespeare: The Lost Play\u2019 under the banner of Shakespeare in the Park, as it was not written by Shakespeare (nor Marlowe for that matter, but let\u2019s not go there).Instead, it bears a much closer resemblance to Monty Python's Flying Circus\u2014 which is certainly not a bad thing, but it does go against the very purpose of Shakespeare in the Park.A big part of Shakespeare in the Park's appeal is that it brings some of the most fundamental literary elements of Western culture to the masses, presenting them in a painless and amusing way\u2014quite unlike the dry classroom readings which generations of high school students have been forced to endure.Thanks to excellent companies like Repercussion Theatre, many children have had their first introduction to such cultural icons as Puck, Hamlet and Lady Macbeth while perched in a lawn chair in their local suburban park.\u2018Shakespeare: The Lost Play\u2019 is a work that should be seen by anyone with a keen sense of humour, especially those who harbour a certain twisted passion for the absurd, but it would be much more appropriate to be presented on its own, not under the misleading auspices of Shakespeare in the Park.Repercussions artistic director Cas Anvar and his talented players are to be praised for their spirit and 2 dedication\u2014but hopefully next summer they will get back to the basics and return with a Shakespeare in the Park that is worthy of its name and purpose.TEE DoN'T TAKE ME To THÉ LATIPSOH Visit our magnificent parks Lucienne Robillard L 'S side from a few rainy days over the past couple of weeks, Mother Nature has been very kind to us this summer.I trust that many of you are enjoying some well-deserved time off, so you may take advantage of some of Canada\u2019s beautiful national parks.I have just returned from my

fanatic.In fact, I thoroughly enjoy taking advantage of my summer vacations by exploring our magnificent provincial and national parks.Last year.I visited two national parks: Fundy National Park in New Brunswick, and Kejimkujik National Park in Nova Scotia.This year, I had the pleasure to venture into provincial parks in Ontario.Among them, I visited Presqu\u2019lle Park.located on Lake

forests as campgrounds or rocky mountains as climbing grounds.For others, nature is a source of inspiration and creativity.As for myself, it is the perfect opportunity to rejuvenate myself.No matter what the motivation to take advantage of Canada\u2019s parks, one thing unifies almost all of Canada\u2019s youth: you have always understood the responsibility to keep our natural spaces clean.Parks were one of our government\u2019s main priorities in the Speech from the Throne, and received funding in Budget 2003.With the announcement of a $144 million investment, new national parks will be established in the Southern Gulf Islands (British Columbia): Ukkusiksalik and Bathurst Island (Nunavut); the Interlake Region (Manitoba); the Torngat Mountains and Mealy Mountains (Newfoundland and Labrador); and the East Arm of Great Slave Lake (Northwest Territories).A further three national park candidates will be identified.A part of this investment will go towards developing national Marine Conservation Areas.The Canada National Marine Conservation Areas Act, passed in 2002, provides the legislative framework to establish and manage a National Marine Conservation Areas system.There are currently two such areas, one in Ontario and one here in Quebec.Thanks to the budget funding, another will be developed for Lake Superior, and two more will follow.Furthermore, we are working towards completion on two others in British Columbia.The ecological well-being of all natural space, also called ecological integrity, is a major part of keeping our natural parks healthy.Ecosystems need to have complete food webs, a full complement of native species that can maintain their populations (such as plants, animals and other organisms), and naturally functioning ecological processes.When this is attained in a park, it has ecological integrity, and will continue to live ang.grow for years to come.\u2019 The parks you enjoy today will be handed down to future generations.Through key investments, the Canadian government is preserving our green spaces, and ensuring that you will continue to enjoy them well into the future.For more information, visit the Parks Canada website at

TOE 0 Sa \u2014 0D OO © W»V¥»O vn +d Cl 33 DU 02 PAUL MARTIN, THE MIME MINISTER Tommy Schnurmacher ho is the prime minister of Canada?That's a tough question.One would be tempted to say that it\u2019s Jean Chrétien since he\u2019s the leader of the party with the most seats in the House of depmmons.But let\u2019s face it, no one is going to pay much attention to any decision he makes unless it\u2019s OK with Paul Martin.That would make Martin the de facto prime minister.While we can occasionally decipher where Chrétien stands on most subjects, Martin is the Marcel Marceau of Canadian politics.While possessed of a treasure trove of platitudes rivaled only by Hallmark cards, he doesn't say much.Martin keeps mum because he doesn\u2019t want to offend anyone.The less he says, the less likely someone might get upset at him.The man is so shy about revealing his opinion on anything that he could hardly wait to flee to some UN gig to beaver away at pressing international concerns.Yet it\u2019s hard to understand why he\u2019s worried about offending anyone since John Manley and 31 million other Canadians realize that no one can stop Martin from becoming the next prime minister.As for Sheila Copps, she has a better chance of unseating Fidel Castro than she does of denying Martin the job he has been actively campaigning for his entire life.Martin knows he\u2019s got the gig.He knows that his decisions and his positions are the only ones that really count.That\u2019s part of the reason that Chrétien is a very angry man.Yes, he does try to keep busy by maintaining the Liberal Party tradition of appointing hundreds of party hacks and personal friends to the public trough.But that's not what keeps the man going.That\u2019s not what makes him buy a condo a stone's throw away from 24 Sussex Drive.Chrétien is motivated by private hurt and rage against a party that was ready to turn on him even though he had done his job \u2014 he had lead them to three successive landslide victories.Instead of being thanked for his work, he was driven out and he knows it.A Liberal leadership race is planned for November.But that\u2019s not the real race.The real race took place already.lt happened last year when Martin ousted the prime minister with a not so veiled threat.If Chrétien didn\u2019t agree to get out, Martin and his minions \u2014 and they are legion across the land \u2014 were fully prepared to hand le p\u2019tit gars de Shawinigan the most humiliating leadership review numbers in Canadian political history.Chrétien was left with no choice.(from the examiner archives) One Year Ago August 1, 2002 McPERMIT ISSUED: \u201cDespite much opposition from local residents over the past two months, McDonald's is a step closer to serving burgers and fries on Sherbrooke Street in Westmount.Pierre Brunet, who holds the franchise for the fast food chain, has been issued a permit by the borough to renovate the vacant space near the corner of Claremont.The work being done inside the former Murray's restaurant at 5011 Sherbrooke will have to conform to code, said Westmount borough council chairman Karin Marks.\u2018We have asked McDonald's to commit to certain things in writing, which they have done.\u2019 Westmount has asked McDonald's to install a filter in its air evacuation system to diminish cooking odours.As a result, the new restaurant will have not only an \u2018entirely new ventilation system, including hoods, ducts, exhaust fan, etc.\u2019 but also a chimney that will discharge air as high as possible.McDonald's staff \u20ac.also be expected to clean up trash nat may accumulate outside.\u201d Ten Years Ago July 29, 1993 PLAQUE ATTACK: \u201cThe centeiinial monument in Westmount Park has been defaced with graffiti and vandalized only one year after it was completely refurbished and rededicated.\u2018There are pieces missing and graffiti scratched into several of the plaques,\u2019 said Kensington Avenue resident Andrew Cook-Jolicoeur.\u2018These are deplorable and reprehensible acts of vandalism.\u2019 Three of the 12 provincial and territorial coats of arms have pieces missing and about five have pen knife scratches including a name, an erroneously drawn swastika and a few KKK markings.\u201d Twenty Years Ago August 4, 1983 MARKET REBOUNDS: \u201cAnyone with doubts about the health of the residential real estate market in Westmount need only glance at a summary of June house transfers to know the market is back on its feet.The 59 houses transferred generally are in the market\u2019s middle ranges.The average price was just less than $170,000.In one transaction, the declared price was more than $300,000.In eight others the declared price fell between $200,000 and $300,000.Prices in most of the transactions were within 20 percent of the MUC property valuation, but in some cases, prices were more extreme.\u201d Thirty Years Ago August 2, 1973 POLICE RECLASSIFICATION: \u201cSome 35 Westmount public safety officers\u2014 police constables who double as required as firemen and comprise almost half the Westmount Police strength\u2014petitioned Public Safety Director E.C.Harper this week to be reclassified as policemen.Their request specifically asks that an additional $300 per annum paid them as PSOs be terminated.The focus of concern of the officers appears to be the city\u2019s attitude toward the new ambulance delivered to Westmount by the MUC a fortnight ago and which has since sat unused.A city spokesman told The Examiner that Westmount and some other suburbs were still awaiting a directive from the MUC as to how the ambulances were to be used.\u201d Forty Years Ago August 2, 1963 NEW CHURCH WING:\u201cFrom humble beginnings in 1889 as The Tabernacle, and onwards through the union of three separate congregations, Westmount Park Church today stands at the threshold of a \u2018new era\u2019 and is at present planning the construction of a two-storey structure estimated to cost about $226,000.The new building, to stand on the site of the present Webster Hall, will provide improved accommodation for activities involving some 400 families in the congregation.The new addition is expected to be completed by April 1964.\u201d Fifty Years Ago July 31, 1953 ELECTORAL RACE: \u201cFive candidates, representing the political beliefs and policies of four major political parties and the opinions of one individual, will contest the St.Antoine-Westmount constituency when balloting opens at 9 a.mon August 10, but the general opinion is that the main struggle lies between the Liberal and Conservative candidates and their organizations.In this dual struggle a David and Goliath resemblance is evident as a young leader (Egan Chambers, PC) with a practically untried organization, wrestles with a cabinet minister (Douglas C.Abbott, L) and a smooth- working organization of veteran political organizers and workers.\u201d Sixty Years Ago July 29, 1943 NEW PORTRAIT: \u201cIt is always interesting to find Old Country traditions kept up in Canada, and the City of Westmount is responsible for many that are worth keeping.One of these traditions is that an official portrait is painted of every successive mayor for the city hall.Not only are the portraits of historic interest but some of them are valuable works of art and worth a visit for the study of the workmanship alone.Far and away the best of all these portraits is the latest\u2014that of Mayor Walter Merrill by Richard Jack, RA, ARCA.Mayor Merrill, wearing his advocate\u2019s robes, is looking out of the picture with an intent gaze\u2014the eyes\u2014as the eyes in all good portraits \u2018just follow you around the room.\" Planning on buying a home?Thinking of selling your home?Let your mouse take you www.westmountproperties.com for a walk at Twenty-four hours after he said that he would stay on, he was forced to announce his resignation, Imagine how the man must have felt at that moment.Polls notwithstanding, Chrétien is convinced that the people of Canada love him dearly.He is equally convinced that it was an impatient and ambitious Paul Martin who turned them against him.Our country drifts along while we try to figure out who's running the place.One thing is for sure.The battle royale between these two political titans sure makes for great drama.Chrétien may soon be through with being prime minister, but if his past history is any indication, he\u2019s not through with Paul Martin.« Tommy Schnurmacher is heard weekdays 9 a.m.to noon on CJAD 800

You don't want to miss the vivid colours and fragrances.If you're a gardener or landscape artist you are responsible.But if ou\u2019re a nature lover, you will definite- have noticed that Westmount is truly the ultimate destination for floral viewing.Many gardeners may have followed a requested landscape pattern, and of course there are always individuals who believe that anything goes.Chances are you may encounter a wild breezy English garden or petal combinations you may have never imagined decorating the exterior of a home.Originally all flowers were wild flowers.Prehistoric people uncovered wild flowers growing everywhere from the tropics to the Arctic.In time, people learned to grow plants from seeds.By 3000 BC, the Egyptians had begun to cultivate a variety of garden flowers, including jasmine, poppies, and lilies.Gardeners have since developed many other kinds and cultivated flowers are now raised in every country.My personal flower choices are usually made as a result of ongoing research.In April and May, once the winter weather has defrosted, I eagerly step into my walking gear and inspect AONE \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 A Member of the Six Flsgs® Family the early bird planters.Occasionally, when friends accompany me on my pre-summer strolls, we have animated discussions concerning our floral preparations.For years I have kept a journal from previous summers concerning future gardening thoughts.I have to admit that over the past 10 years, Westmount grounds have emerged more magnificent, exotic and original.It is not merely the pansy, geranium variety sprouting any longer, but other genres have met the garden criteria.You can see circular dahlias, hyacinths, lilies, tuberous begonia, the poppy, or the elegant hibiscus budding in well-turned earth or from a clay or ceramic pot.Colour schemes may vary with seasonal fashion trends, as you\u2019ll witness in this years planted variety.What Westmount gardens are showing in 2003 For years Westmount residents were fortunate to have an organized floral walking tour to direct them through the beauty of summer growth, but now The Examiner can be your informal guide.Due to the maintenance of privacy, streets will be named, but addresses omitted.Before immersion in floral beauty, | believe that one of the most outstanding Westmount natural attributes framing and distinguishing themselves from other areas, are the stately varieties of trees reflecting different time periods.You will come across maple, elm, birch, oak, catalpa, butternut hickory and many others.As | write this story, 1 am glancing out my kitchen window and the green vegetation is beyond description.If 1 were artistically inclined, in other words, if I could paint, my first piece of work would depict what is growing right outside my home.Just stroll down the streets of Grosvenor, Victoria, and Westmount Avenue.Trees border with shades of greens in branch-like arabesque positions giving Westmount its most uniquely country yet elegant character.You can start your walk at any point, to discover the above-mentioned streets.I love the area around the Bird Sanctuary at Summit Circle and I usually stroll there when the forested area is replete with foliage including kling of a pastel flower that was wind pollinated.Check out the shrub and bush varieties and the remarkable amounts of early morning walkers, runners and dog owners enjoying the magnificence at the top.Venture to Belvedere Road near Sunnyside and view a rock garden on a mountainside that combines mature trees, glorious pink and red peonies and other perennials.Oakland is peaceful serenity, Surrey Gardens reflects an interesting split of homes and forest area, Shorncliffe lends the aura of a country styling and Gordon Crescent is picturesque with professionally designed gardens of perennials, annuals and shrubbery.Lexington highlights the Victorian gardens with bountiful arrangements, pottery and sculptures.When walking down Devon Avenue, a forested side street on your right features a shaded, secluded street with a lovely viewing of the top of the Shrine.(continued on page 15) the odd sprin- [TAXI ATLAS 485-8585 [3 485-4888 Airport reservations 100% Guaranteed or your trip is free*!!!

THE WESTMOUNT EXAMINER - Thursday, July 31, 2003 ARTS Abstract Expressionism thrives at Victoria Hall Darlene Cousins isitors to the Gallery at Viera Hall this summer may have felt as if they had been transported back to the 1940s and \u201850s, as the current dual exhibition by Stanimir Stoilov and Grigor Kuzmanov evokes the golden age of Abstract Expressionism.Both artists were born in Bulgaria and pursued their artistic training in the capital of Sofia before emigrating to Canada.Stanimir Stoilov\u2019s works offer the viewer a refreshing reacquaintance with form, colour and space.Stoilov works in a variety of media, including watercolour on paper, oil-on-masonite ARC.SAFARS (450)1247:2727] www.parcsafari.com and,large mixed media works.He sometimes gouges into the wood surface of his panels to \u201ccreate wandering black lines.and graffiti-like markings.\u201d Although his work owes much to 1940s Abstract Expressionist Arshile Gorky, whose emotional push-pull tension on the canvas was often described as \u201clyrical abstraction,\u201d there is a lighter, more playful side to Stoilov\u2019s works.The large mixed-media \u2018Smoking Woman\u2019 is a particularly amusing piece.The figure of a woman holding a lit cigarette can be made out sitting on a chair through a haze of smoke.While rendering the woman through nothing more than a few lines and circles, Stoilov manages to convey a sense NOW/ OF UNTIL 10 PM.HALF PRICE after 4 p.m.STARTING FROM * price lor one child between the ages of 2 and 10, atter 4 p.m.Come and enjoy the entertaining evenings at the Parc * Automobile safari: iast departure at 5 p.me Animals: until * Swimming: untiR@.CEE DT ET.Only 30 minutes from the south of Montreal CAFE: e LT MEET RL * Shows: until 1 e Rides: until 1 Restaurant Terrace: Hemmingford (Québec), Autoroute WF Exit IF A distinctive work by Stanimir Stoilov at Victoria Hall of liveliness, movement and frivolity to the abstracted figure.When looking at the painting you feel as though you have come across the woman in a café\u2014in mid-conversation and can\u2019t help but to stop and listen\u2014you can almost hear the woman\u2019s rambling words.The large scale 40 x 48\u201d oil-on- masonite \u2018Birth\u2019 is very reminiscent of Gorky\u2019s use of lines and embryonic forms.Lines pull shapes and forms together across the canvas in a way that makes the viewer curious\u2014 pulling the viewer into the multi- layered narrative as well.Dr.Georges Bochi Podiatrist Doctor in Podiatric Medicine American College of Foot & Ankle Surgeons 40354641 GRB GATINEAU HOT AIR BALLOON FESTIVAL, HEBDOS TRANSCONTINENTAL .TQS | DOWNTOWN PODIATRY CLINIC State Of The Art Orthotics Surgery & Treatment * BUNIONS & HAMMER TOES * FLAT FEET » DIABETIC FOOT CARE * ANKLES (SPRAINS / STRAINS / FRACTURES) Approved By Most Group, Private, Veteran and University Insurance Plans 514 931-6111 1832 Sherbrooke St.W.Stoilov has exhibited extensively in throughout Europe as well as New York and Canada, and has been a freelance artist and illustrator for over 15 years.In a perfect juxtaposition to Stoilov\u2019s work, Grigor Kuzmanov examines how light transforms into colour through his geometric abstractions.In a \u201cradical shift in direction,\u201d Kuzmanov painted the series of acrylic-on-paper works over the past year.They deal with the artist\u2019s \u201clongstanding interest in the subtleties of light\u2019s translation into colour, it rhythmic relationship and its silen expansion.\u201d Although it has been more than a century since artists first started experimenting with colour and hard- edged abstraction, unfortunately the sight of multiple canvases filled with lines of colour will always elicit cries of \u201cMy kid could paint that!\u201d or \u201cCan you paint my kitchen?\u201d But the viewer must see past any of these initial reactions and closely examine Kuzmanov\u2019s images.With titles such as \u2018Broken Light\u2019, \u2018Wavelengths\u2019 and \u2018Light Vibrations\u2019, Kuzmanov explores the relationship between light and colour in a way that will have you watching the lines of colour on the paper as they \u201cvibrate almost musically.\u201d « Grigor Kuzmanov and Stanimir Stoilov\u2019s exhibition continues in the Gallery at Victoria Hall, 4626 Sherbrooke W, through Aug.6.Info: 989-5226.e INGROWN TOE NAILS e PLANTER\u2019S WART » HEEL AND ARCH PAINS © Metro Guy City ; Province _ Postal code Telephone E-mail Question: Who is the artist headlining the Molson Dry Main Stage, August 29, 2003?NAN ite CH REA Sabi Ak AL Re (ed ut QU 40 nwo wooo TP Sox Dedicated to you | and committed to achieving : Westmount à 1st AD Situated on a magnificent pool sized lot bordering the bird -sanctuary, this impeccably maintained home has an elegant and spacious design.4 bedrooms, 2+1 bathrooms, 2 car garage, air conditioning, fireplace and many more amenities.Won't last!
