‘WINDSCAPE’ INSTALLATION TO BE CENTRAL FEATURE AT LUMINATO FESTIVAL
Sparking an annual tradition, Luminato, Toronto Festival of Arts and

transformed into an art installation for the duration of the festival, June 8–17, 2012.
Last year, when downtown Toronto’s Metro Square was renamed David Pecaut Square in memory of
Luminato’s visionary co-founder, the festival embraced the space as its central Hub. This year, to celebrate
and showcase its multifaceted role within the festival—a place to meet, play, explore, and share in a spectrum
of free programming—David Pecaut Square is being completely transformed by Toronto’s illustrious Diamond
Schmitt Architects. The Hub has been re-imagined as Windscape by a team of architects including Jack
Diamond, Michael Leckman, Brad Hindson and Marcin Sztaba.
