Extractions: Français Site Map Help Credits ... Museums by regions Map of thematic routes Urban or rural, bourgeois or avant-garde Architecture, design and decorative arts are all the work of creators who have made their marks throughout Quebec. The only museum devoted to architecture, the Canadian Centre for Architecture offers programming of international calibre and has earned a reputation as a centre for research and education. Its exhibitions and activities explain the different facets of this art and give visitors new perspectives on the city. "Here at the Canadian Centre for Architecture, we respected the surrounding greystone buildings. Our approach has an educational dimension. I wanted people to understand that greystone was an important architectural element in Montreal." Phyllis Lambert, founder of the Canadian Centre for Architecture, in Montreal. Architects, designers and creators have crafted their own works and imposed their own styles. Just look around as you roam through Quebec, and you'll see the Quebec spirit, with its French, English and other roots, in design, architecture and urban planning everywhere. It is in the groups of buildings in lower and upper towns, in the many details and decorative elements. The museums themselves are part of it; their architecture speaks of history, past and present.

Extractions: What is Cultural Studies? Cultural studies (CS) is concerned with subjectivity and powerhow human subjects are formed and experience their lives in cultural and social space. CS blends methods and issues from economics, politics, media and communication studies, sociology, literature, education, the law, science and technology studies, anthropology, and history, with a particular focus on gender, race, class, and sexuality in everyday life. It represents, in broad terms, the commingling of textual and social theory, under the sign of a commitment to progressive social change. Rather than limiting its focus to canonical works of art, governmental history, or quantitative social data, CS devotes time to subcultures, popular media, music, clothing, and sport. By looking at how culture is used and transformed by "ordinary" and "marginal" social groups, CS sees them not simply as consumers, but also potential producers of new social values and cultural languages. This focus on relations of consumption and the socialization of commodities foregrounds the centrality of the communications media in everyday life.

The statue is also known as the Small Amasya Statue or "Hittite God of Storm Teshup" and it is one of the unique remains of the Hittites. It was incidentally found on a small hill in Doðantepe, in 1962. The legs, arms and some parts of the statue, which is made of bronze casting technique, could not be found yet. The height of remaining part of the statue, which bears a conical hat, is 21.5 cm and weight is 1340 gr. It belongs to Hittite Age (1400-1200 BC) and it is the biggest human statue among other metal statues that could be found. The facial expression of the statue reflects a mixture of mildness and strength.
