Urbanscape Architectural Gallery, in partnership with the Toronto Society of Architects (TSA) presents Unbuilt Toronto: The City That Could Have Been. Juried images of unbuilt projects from practising architects and designers are juxtaposed against historical images of unrealized building proposals drawn from Mark Osbaldeston’s book, Unbuilt Toronto: A History of the City That Might Have Been (Dundurn Press, November, 2008). Presented in two parts, Unbuilt Toronto: The City That Could Have Been consists of historical images – covering more than 150 years and as selected from Mark Osbaldeston’s book. Visitors will be exposed to proposals for ambitious and often controversial projects such as the Civic Improvement Committee’s proposed Federal Avenue of 1911, Eaton’s 1928 stand-out College Street tower, and “Project Toronto,” Buckminster Fuller’s futuristic plan for the city from 1968. The exhibition also features images of more contemporary unrealized projects for Toronto, many of which have never before been seen by the general public.The Toronto Society of Architects has invited designers, large and small, to submit unrealized architectural, landscape or urban design projects that might have resulted in a very different city from the one seen today. To ensure potency of dialogue, the contemporary projects submitted must have had substantial potential for realization within the Greater Toronto Area: each project had a client, was part of an invited submission, or was short-listed for a competition. Final selection by the TSA’s curatorial panel of architects, educators and urbanists was based on design excellence, the context for cancellation, and the significance of impact had the project been realized.

Exhibition is a part of the 5th annual Festival of Architecture and Design (fAd). Each May, fAd showcases Toronto’s architecture and design communities with a variety of events such as exhibitions, films lectures, readings and walking tours.Meet local designers and international architects, activists and academics. Celebrate good design and discover how it shapes our city and enriches our lives. More information at www.toronto.ca/fad

April 22 to May 2. Opening on April 25 from 2 pm to 6 pm.

The dreamy post-apocalyptic landscapes of Mitch Clark reflect this artist's influences. Architecture, graffitti, religion, music and politics all play a big role in the developement of some of the most lyrical and original works of art to come out of Toronto by someone so young.

Kat Citroen and her Text inspired paintings are an homage to the abstractionists and poets of earlier decades, while breaking some old barriers.
