Buckminster Fuller at the Whitney
This afternoon, I went and saw the most remarkable exhibit I've seen in some time. If you have a chance to go to the Whitney Museum, you need to see "Buckminster Fuller: Starting with the Universe." The exhibition, which will be open until September 21st, is a collection of this man's epic contribution to design, architecture, science, and philosophy. Ages before Al Gore, Fuller was operating by asking himself whether or not human life has the ability to sustain itself lastingly and successfully on Earth. Doing "more with less" was his credo and the end results are impossibly wonderful. For anyone interested in design, architecture, sustainablity, or watching art and science be completely intertwined in the most thought provoking and enthralling way.
Kudos to the Whitney because, let's face it, the Biennial was garbage.
