My Ode to Zaha…
“How many great people in the world art history are known by their first names only? Think of it. Not too many. Offhand I can recall only four. Leonardo. Raphael. Michelangelo. Zaha.” http://bit.ly/azR1u5

    why? says:

    Thats nice.
    Only in architecture (and to stop that blasphemy of putting Zaha in the ninja turtles instead of Donnatelo):
    - Siza;
    - Gehry;
    - Libeskind;
    - Foster;
    - Mies;
    - Khan;
    - Corbusier;
    - Neutra;
    - Venturi;
    - Gaudi;
    - Calatrava;
    - Zumthor;
    - Chipperfield;
    - Aalto;
    - Saarinen;
    - Koolhas;
    - idiot.

    And thats only from the XX/XXI centuries.

    Who? says:

    Well of course, if her name was Anna, John or Jack I’m quite sure it would have been more difficult to remember it!
    What kind of logic is behind your way of thinking?
    By the way I could list at least 1000 people more…
    And by the way is not Raphael but Raffaello

MadamImAdam says:

Hadid is a brilliant shaper of form, but her buildings are nothing if not arbitrary, and the combination of her fame and her flamboyant designs has insidiously led people to assume that female architects tend to favor shape-making over problem-solving.

Who? says:

Have you been there?
That building is so clumsy. it doens’t create any urban relation with the surrounding (it was a lot of talk about that in the general idea of the project) and is not even finished according to the original project.
As an art space then, it has, to me, a lot of problem: acustic, distribution, circulation. It would have been more efficient as a shopping mall rather than as a museum.
Neosuprematism in that case just doesn’t make sense
