The Governor General’s Medals in Architecture recognize outstanding achievement in recently built projects by Canadian architects. This program, created by the RAIC, contributes to the development of the discipline and practice of architecture, and increases public awareness of architecture as a vital cultural force in Canadian society. These awards are administered jointly with the Canada Council for the Arts, which is responsible for the adjudication process and contributes to the publication highlighting the medal winners.
The recipients of this year’s Governor General’s Medals in Architecture will be recognized during the RAIC Festival of Architecture in Quebec City June 17-19, 2004. The 2004 Medals in Architecture are expected to be presented to the laureates this fall.
The Royal Architectural Institute of Canada would also like to acknowledge the continued support of McGraw-Hill Construction, who have been a sponsor of the Governor General's Medals in Architecture for several years.
“Architecture is art produced on the grandest possible canvas. An architect’s creations literally transform our landscape, reshaping empty space into buildings that fill particular needs and, in the best examples, inspire us by their presence. By giving physical form to their architectural vision, this year’s winners have built a legacy that reflects Canada’s growing maturity as a nation.”
Her Excellency
the Right Honourable
Adrienne Clarkson,
Governor General
of Canada
