Curtain with view of Allied REIT
Curtain with view of Allied REIT
2025


Allied’s corporate head office, located in Toronto’s former garment manufacturing district at Richmond and Peter Street, is constructed directly on top of an old red-brick factory. In this new high-rise construction the original factory is encapsulated by an ultramodern glass and steel cage, and aestheticized by its frame. According to Allied’s website, the new construction “intensifies an under-utilized site, rehabilitating the existing urban fabric and creating new, high-performance commercial spaces.” The office reception on the 17th floor offers a panoramic view of the city’s skyline, pictured within this curtain.

After the exhibition’s close, the curtain is to be used by galerie CLARK as a privacy curtain during install and deinstall periods, applied to the glass doors between the gallery and the Allied-branded interior-facing corridors.
