Casavant, Opus 3079, 1970
|
Le style contemporain impressionnant de la chapelle ainsi que sa forme conique distinctive démontrent une forte influence amérindienne de la côte ouest et furent conçus par l'architecte Paul Thiry. Les verrières, représentant la Création telle que rapportée dans la Genèse, ont été fabriquées par Gabriel Loire de Chartres, en France, un artiste de renommée intermationale.
Sur le pont Wallace Howe Lee Memorial reliant la route à l'entrée de la chapelle, on y retrouve la sculpture des quatre évangélistes. Celles-ci combinent des anciens symboles chrétiens et des symboles amérindiens de la côte ouest et ont été conçues par le chef Lelooska de la tribu Cherokee.
La chapelle peut accommoder 650 personnes et est utilisé régulièrement pour les liturgies, les conférences, et les concerts.
L'orgue
L'orgue a été conçu, fabriqué et installé par la firme Casavant Frères de St. Hyacinthe (Québec). Il est le seul instrument au monde à être suspendu du pinacle du plafond de la chapelle. En fait, quoique la majeure partie de la tuyauterie soit incluse dans le module principal, il existe quatre divisions installées au jubé arrière au-dessus de la porte d'entrée de la chapelle et à proximité de la console.

The Agnes Flanagan Chapel is one of the first buildings that visitors to Lewis & Clark College see as they drive up Palatine Hill Road and approach the main campus. The chapel is named in honor and memory of college trustee Agnes Flanagan whose vision, enthusiam and generosity made its construction possible. Completed in the fall of 1968, the chapel was officially dedicated in February of 1969.
The chapel's impressive contemporary lines and distinctive conical shape incorporate a strong Northwest Coast Native American influence, and are the design of architect Paul Thiry. The stained glass windows which depict the creation story as told in the book of Genesis, were designed and crafted by Gabriel Loire of Chartres, France, an artist renowned for his work worldwide.
The Wallace Howe Lee Memorial Bridge, leading from the roadway to the chapel entrance, is flanked by sculpted figures of the four evangelists. Chief Lelooska of the Cherokee tribe designed these figures which combine ancient Christian symbolism with the symbolism of the Northwest Coast Native American people.
The chapel offers seating for 650 people and is used regularly for worship services, lectures, concerts, and musical performances.
L'orgue
The organ was designed, constructed and installed by Casavant Frères of St. Hyacinthe (Quebec). It is the only instrument in the world where pipeworks are suspended in the center of the chapel from the pinnacle of the chapel ceiling. Even though the main organ is installed in the main module, four divisions are in the rear gallery, over the chapel entrance, and proximal to the console.
