Description
This program profiles the man responsible for some of the most triumphant architecture of the 20th century: architect I.M. Pei. He discusses the triumphs (and failures) of his career, and the primary artistic and intellectual influences reflected in the sweeping simplicity of his designs, from the Kennedy Presidential Library to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio. Pei also talks about his more recent projects, as viewers follow him from the sites of some of his most famous works, including one of his most impressive: the 1983 renovation of the Louvre, a project not without its political and architectural controversies. The program sheds light on how Pei has incorporated his admiration of art and his love of people into his own architectural style, thereby meeting the challenge of uniting form with both function and structure.
