More From Richard Rogers

Architecture is art. i don't think you should say that too much, but it is art. i mean, architecture is many, many things. architecture is science, is technology, is geography, is typography, is anthropology, is sociology, is art, is history. you know all this comes together. architecture is a kind of bouillabaisse, an incredible bouillabaisse. and, by the way, architecture is also a very polluted art in the sense that it's polluted by life, and by the complexity of things.
Art Mean Technology

Space expands or contracts in the tensions and functions through which it exists. space is not a static, inert thing. space is alive; space is dynamic; space is imbued with movement expressed by forces and counterforces; space vibrates and resounds with color, light and form in the rhythm of life.

But as van casually directed the searchlight of backthought into that maze of the past where the mirror-lined narrow paths not only took different turns, but used different levels (as a mule-drawn cart passes under the arch of a viaduct along which a motor skims by), he found himself tackling, in still vague and idle fashion, the science that was to obsess his mature years - problems of space and time, space versus time, time-twisted space, space as time, time as space - and space breaking away from time, in the final tragic triumph of human cogitation: i am because i die.

What i have learned about museum buildings is that buildings have to have iconic presentations. the position of the art museum vis-a-vis other civic buildings needs to be hierarchal in the community. it has to be equal to the library and the courthouse.

Similar Quotes
The peril of every fine faculty is the delight of playing with it for pride. talent is commonly developed at the expense of character, and the greater it grows, the more is the mischief. talent is mistaken for genius, a dogma or system for truth, ambition for greatness, ingenuity for poetry, sensuality for art.
