More information:

Montreal's Olympic Stadium (venue for 1976 Olympics) was designed with a retractable roof hanging down from a slanted tower. Nowadays, for technical reasons, the roof is always maintained in the closed position. The cables and way the roof attaches offer many opportunities for abstract composition, such as in this photograph
