Description:
The project series documents Melvin Charney's work for the design competition for the Royal Canadian Air Force Memorial (RCAF) at the National Air Force Museum of Canada in Ottawa, Ontario. The project was identified by Charney as the MEMO Series. The competition called for the design of a building of “appropriate character” which would commemorate “the birth and growth of Canadian aviation”. The competition program was very specific, requesting a building on a predefined site, with rooms designed for specific activities. MEMO was formally submitted by Charney and consisted of 91 pages of plans, designs, photographs and instructions on 335-5136 metric graph paper. Instead of constituting a true design for a building, MEMO consists of pages of memorandums intended for the organizers of the competition. The memos describe different ideas of how to conceptualize “the birth and growth of Canadian aviation”, as a critical response to what Charney saw as a “narrowness” in the competition’s vision. Charney referred to the idea of erecting a “singular building in an isolated part of the country” and considering it a memorial as being a “restrictive if not repressive act”.

Description:
These eight presentation boards (1967-1977 ?) are collages composed of reduced copies of previously published material, such as periodical clippings and photomechanical prints, interspersed with titles and text describing relevant work. The two projects represented are Fun Palace (AP144.S2.D46) and O.C.H. Feasibility Study (Oxford Corner House, AP144.S2.D59). Price apparently chose these two projects as a comparative study for concepts which he was developing at the time. Further research is required to establish the theme(s) of the German Exhibition and how this comparative study by Price fits into the exhibition.
