[REPLAY] S4#66 🇺🇸🇬🇧 SPOT "Sir Norman Foster and the archistar"

Com d'Archi

From 2023 May 10 to August 7, the Centre Pompidou (or "Beaubourg" for those who know him well ;-) ) is dedicating an exhibition to a major world figure in architecture: Sir Norman Foster, PRITZKER Prize. This world-renowned architect is at the head of one of the world's largest architectural firms, Foster + Partners, which designed, for example, the Apple headquarters in Cupertino, California, and the Millau Viaduct. His rise has been meteoric. He himself says Architect's of the world (...) don't take yourselves so seriously.

In addition to this flagship exhibition, this event is an opportunity for us to question the figure of the architect! Because, between yesterday when the reign of the star architect was rampant and today when everything is smoothed out and values are stupidly annihilated, where are we?
