Louis Kahn Tribute (1)

Posted by Evelyn (Berkeley, United States) on 19 February 2007 in Architecture.

This weekend I drove to New Haven with my friends to see the newly renovated Yale University Art Gallery. It had been renovating the whole time we were in college, and has been receiving a lot of press attention, notably in the NY Times arts section.

While I try to shy away from pictures of art, since it is really someone else's art making the photo what it is and not any really clever device of my own, I couldn't resist putting up a series of the things I saw. Especially since it took so well to photography.

The current exhibit is all about Louis Kahn and his architectural genius, many pieces chosen by the curator as tie-ins to his post-war time period and his vision.
This is a photo of the main hall.
