Re:Frank Gehry has a few things to get off his chest on Thursday July 14, 2022 @10:08AM (#32096284)
Busy at 90+ is inspiring. But I had to live near the Weisman Art Museum in the Twin Cities for some time, and I found it a fundamentally silly and depressing building. Especially in the winter. The facade has absurd and irrelevant appendages, the backside is a mundane red brick wall, which suggests the front is all for show. The interior is confusing. The last thing I wanted to see during the MN winter is more gray cold surfaces. It did not integrate at all with the Mississippi bluffs, and it had no integration with the neighborhood.

I happen to live in a neighborhood where Frank Lloyd Wright built a few homes. The homeowner experience is terrible, but the buildings are wonderful.
