Am I thinking of writing this in Silence and Light, or here. Because the feeling for Louis Kang actually comes from this movie, here it is.

This piece is actually average, like the material is directly spliced into a unit, many places can be more refined to make it look better.
Getting this nomination is actually because of the name of Louis Connee's magic stick.
But in the end in front of the Bangladesh parliament Building, my son said, I am the son of a designer. Then a group of spectators who spoke incomprehensible English immediately shouted in an astonishing, understanding tone, and Louis Kahn was still a little moved.
A sentence suddenly popped into my mind: A person's whole life is just doing two things, finding himself and defending himself. Many people stop at the first half, failure, or the second half, frustration. Good thing Kahn died defending himself.
The story of his death in the underground toilet of a subway station, with his body unclaimed for several days, has a bizarre moment with Gaudi. It's just that GAUDI is pursuing his light and dreamy kingdom, and Kahn is a happy pilgrim who fell on the pilgrimage road.
I especially like the inside story of a parachute appearing in front of the canal in front of the Salk Institue that points directly to the ocean. This group of buildings has a very heavy religious feeling, and the appearance of the parachute inside makes it secular and soft. What Kahn sees has a heavy sense of religion, not the Tao of Lao Tzu, which is desperately linked to existentialism in the inner book that Cheng Han turned over. This Order is the logic of the inner God who said there must be light when he created the world.
Didn't Eliot's poem say, Between the idea and the reality, the inner book is translated into the ideal and the reality, but when this Idea is capitalized, isn't it the idea of the legendary philosopher who has the same status as the Order of God? .
They say that the geometric shape of the Salk Institute is a mandala, and each collection has the symbols and attributes of God. I believe it is really shrouded in a strong sense of religion, a quiet spacious and limited space, Best for meditation. When there is light and shadow, it can bring religious experience. So I always feel that looking at the rose window is the easiest way to generate religious feelings in a church.
However, for every religion, its success largely stems from the fact that it loses its sanctity to cater to the secular world. Of course, Abraham killed his son and sacrificed is an important story in the Bible, but it is not a cult if similar things happen today. ? So, the secular does not tolerate sacredness, it likes norms and order, and a decent defender of it. For example, Ieoh Ming Pei. The legend of getting the Kennedy Library because the office is clean is naturally just a story. But I.M. Pei's life is obviously much better than that of Louis Kahn. I think he will die in a hospital bed surrounded by relatives instead of in the toilet of the subway.
I don't mean to slander Master Bei, but as far as I have seen the Pyramid of the Louvre Square and the Bank of China Building, he is not to my taste.
that's all.
