"EXPO A LA FRANCE
La belle France is bringing its own imitation flavor to Expo '67 with a pavilion that combines the traditional French romanticism with her dynamic spirit. Concieved by Paris architect, Jean Faugeron and Montreal co-architect Andre Blouin, the pavillion is a basic steel and concrete construction. Topping the structure will be a swirling canopy of bright-andoized aluminum blades which will create a reflective, halo-like grille-work atop the structure."
