Richard Meier has always been considered the post-modernist king of shiny-white architecture. If you want to have a look at his works, just visit the Louise T Blouin Institute which is hosting “Richard Meier: Art and Architecture“, a retrospective exhibition of his extraordinary versatility as artist, designer and architect. Here you can admire Meier’s outstanding international architectural creations and explore his sculpture, collages, drawings, photographs, furniture and product design over 45 years.
Richard Meier remains the youngest recipient of the Pritzker Prize (1984) which is considered to be architecture’s highest accolade. He is renowned internationally for cultural projects which include The Getty Center, Los Angeles; the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, Georgia; the Museum of Contemporary Art, Barcelona; and the Jubilee Church, Rome, amongst others. Meier has over the years developed his own distinctive and dynamic style of architecture to become one of America’s most influential and widely emulated architects. His work celebrates natural light and space in response to the environs in which it stands, thereby creating sublime spaces of aesthetic illumination and enlightened cultural values.
