Millenium People on ‘Super Critical’, the first in a new series from the Architectural Association, AA Words:
“I wouldn’t want you to cry for having had to come here tonight for this conversation, because nobody dragged you here.”
- Peter Eisenman to Rem Koolhaas.So ends Supercritical, a little volume that documents the rare meeting of two architect friends/enemies/rivals/(whatever) – Rem Koolhaas & Peter Eisenman. It accurately transcribes the two’s complete inability to say anything meaningful to each other, and their ultimate decline into dressed-up name-calling. This spectacular failure on the part of their dialogue has forced me to split this review into two posts: one on the discussion itself, and one on the novel medium through which this piece presents itself.
