“Nathaniel Kahn’s wonderful movie about his father, My Architect.”
Wendy Lesser, You Say to Brick: The Life of Louis Kahn
“You have to go to a museum to look at paintings, attend a concert to hear live music, pick up a novel if you intend to read it. These art forms are, in that respect, relatively passive. Architecture, on the other hand, is aggressive: it surrounds us all the time, not just in our homes and offices but in public places. It is ever-present and often forgettable, but even when we aren’t particularly focused on it, it can make us feel better or worse, depending on its quality.”
