Victor Marius Prus (24 April 1917 in
Mińsk Mazowiecki (Poland) – 21 January 2017 in
Montreal)[1] was a Polish-born Canadian architect. He designed several major buildings in
Quebec which won many prizes, such as the
Grand Théâtre de Québec in Quebec City; his designs were chosen from those of several entries in a national competition in 1964. With his wife Maria Fisz Prus and many collaborators, he designed buildings remarkable for their characteristic and appropriate "ambiance", which, according to Prus, was the "ultimate objective" of architecture.
