    Architectural Sessions: Quiet Architecture — Thomas Phifer & Gabriel Smith in Conversation with Maziar Behrooz …….. NEW 6.9.14 Architectural Sessions at the Parrish Quiet Architecture: Thomas Phifer and Gabriel Smith in Conversation with Maziar Behrooz. In association with AIA Peconic. Lichtenstein Theater, Parrish Art Museum, Water Mill, New York September 15, 2013 Andrea Grover, Curator of Special Projects: I want to tell you a little bit about tonight’s program by starting with a quote by Thomas Phifer: “We’re into very quiet architecture. Our buildings want to be helping hands, bringing people closer to understanding the sun and light and the change of seasons. For far too long buildings have been fortresses cutting people off from nature.” This session will examine this particular focus of the Phifer firm and how this gridline goes through projects from conception to completion. Thomas Phifer founded his New York City based firm, Thomas Phifer & Partners, in 1997. The firm is has recently completed the North Carolina Museum of Art in Raleigh and the Brochstein Pavilion at Rice University, as well as a number of residential commissions. Current projects include an expansion of the Corning Museum of Glass, a new museum for the Glenstone Foundation in Potomac, Maryland, and a federal office building in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The firm’s buildings have received numerous AIA national and New York honor awards. Phifer has received a Medal of Honor from the NY Chapter of AIA and the Grand Prize from the American Academy in Rome, and in 2013 the Arts & Letters award in architecture from the American Academy of Arts & Letters.

  • Re-Viewing and Reimagining Paul Rudolph's Brutalist Architecture In
    140 studies in History & Theory of Architecture Re-viewing and Reimagining Paul Rudolph’s Brutalist Architecture in the USA and Southeast Asia Anna Dempsey, Ben Youtz and Kelly Haigh University of Massachusetts Dartmouth | designLAB architects [email protected] | [email protected], [email protected] KEYWORDS: modern architecture, Paul Rudolph, Brutalism, campus architecture, place-making, concrete Introduction Theodore Dalrymple famously described late modern expressionist (Brutalist) buildings as “totalitarian,” “cold hearted moral deformit[ies]” that should be demolished.1 Even during the 1950s and 1960s, arguably the style’s halcyon days, British critic Reyner Banham noted that critics of the “new Brutalism” regarded “the movement” as “a cult of ugliness.”2 Though Banham concluded that Brutalism represented “a contribution to the architecture of today,” he stated that the buildings of Alison and Peter Smithson - who coined the term “new Brutalism” - exhibited both “ineloquence” and “bloody-mindedness.”3 Despite Banham’s and other critics’ reservations, this post-War modernist movement was a global one. Architects such as Germany’s Werner Düttmann (the Agnes Kirche in Berlin, 1964), Australia’s Peter Hall (the Residential Colleges at the University of New South Wales, 1962-1966), Argentina’s Clorindo Testa (Banco de Londres in Buenos Aires, 1966) were among those who embraced what Banham referred to as the “ruthless logic” of Brutalism’s functional style.4 In the United States, Louis Kahn, I.M Pei and several other architects also designed and built Brutalist structures. Nevertheless, Paul Rudolph (a student of Bauhaus founder Walter Gropius) is the American architect most closely associated with Dalrymple’s “cold-hearted” style.

  • Transcripts of William Grindereng Interview
    Claire T. Carney Library, University of Massachusetts Dartmouth North Dartmouth, MA Interview with William Grindereng: Longtime Architectural Associate of Architect Paul Rudolph. Interviewed by Bruce Barnes. Recorded in Boston Massachusetts June 28, 2006. Transcript of a video recorded interview with architect William Grindereng, in which he recounts the portion of his career (1955-1972) he was associated with architect Paul Rudolph. Among the many major projects discussed is the Government Service Center in Boston, the Bangladesh (Formerly East Pakistan) Agricultural University and SMTI / University of Massachusetts Dartmouth. Also in attendance, Grattan Gill, also a former architectural associate of Rudolph as well as job captain or project manager for SMTI / UMass Dartmouth during the construction of the campus in the 1960s. Transcript Preparation and Additional Research by Joanne Garfield, Technical Services Department, Claire T. Carney Library, UMass Dartmouth Library Bruce Barnes: If you could, give me a brief biography of yourself, how you came to be an architect, and your connections to Paul Rudolph. William Grindereng: I first graduated from Ohio University with a degree in architectural engineering. Following that, I worked four years full-time for architects in South Dakota and Ohio. I decided that I needed to fill in some gaps in my education so I applied to Yale. I went there with advanced standing and graduated after two years with a Master of Architecture degree. While at Yale, I was fortunate to have had Paul Rudolph as a visiting critic. It was actually his first two visits to Yale. The first project that he gave us [1955] was a weekend sketch project was for a Tastee Freez stand which he had done in Sarasota.

Rohan | 304 pages | 10 Jul 2014 | Yale University Press | 9780300149395 | English | United States The Architecture of Paul Rudolph PDF Book Even in his prime, as he received commissions for large public projects—including a megastructure that stamped out a large part of Boston's West End and one for New York that would have destroyed a slice of lower Manhattan—Rudolph was still most often depicted as a maverick, a rogue. Google Scholar. In developing and refining his design priorities to accommodate his large commissions, Rudolph was not pandering to any new fashionable trend or fickle change in style; he was still convinced by his early convictions, but it was the acceptance of these later adjustments in his design philosophy that classified him as a Late-Modernist. There was no established theory expounded, other than a liberal education that encouraged a healthy examination of the relevant current issues. Form, Heft, Material. Daniel Ledford Daniel Ledford.

In spite of his reservations about the limitations of two-dimensional drawings or that any form of presentation can ever convey the ultimate nature of a building, Rudolph still achieved a far greater standard of graphic communication through his presentation techniques than any other modern architect. At the time, Rudolph was working independently and would later become an icon in European Modernism. The Lindemann was composed of several general activity spaces—child guidance, a nursery, family therapy, individual therapy, group therapy, occupational therapy, inpatient care, as well as administrative and research facilities.
