Québec Pavilion

Its exterior walls were made of glass, appearing as large rectangular mirrors during the day and transforming into an illuminated display case at night.

In this reflection of Quebec society, the minimalist display methods themselves were an attraction: thousands of coloured steel cubes were used as part of the exhibits which was bathed in an electronic score by Quebec composer Gilles Tremblay in which synthesized whir, twitter and roar complemented the visual suggestions.

In this journey, the visitors witnessed a kaleidoscopic show expressing the passing of the seasons which represented the challenge which the original French settlers encountered.

In clockwise order, the visitor saw representations of Quebec's Conquest of nature; its Water, Forest, Earth, and Underground which would subsequently be transformed by Industry.

The path the visitors walked took on an important meaning, they were led on a promenade that allowed them to experience Quebec's history.
