Robert Venturi is the father of postmodern architecture and, along with his partner Denise Scott Brown, has changed how the world thinks about buildings. I got a chance to meet this 86 year old legend recently and found him to be brilliant, funny, and truly an inspiration. In this 22 minute short film (part 1 is about 14 minutes and part 2 is about 7 minutes), I hope to present to you one of the most important creative artists and visionaries Philadelphia has ever produced.

  • its about communication... if it took so long for tha guy to understand it.... i guess "it's more noise than signal"

    Interesting!

  • Here is another reason I love this film, while watching this encore showing Abbey Wambach just scored in the last 15 minutes making it 2 to 1 in the womans world cup!!! Oh, and I also love Woody Allen!!

  • I know little if anything about architecture, but this movie really made me think about the impact it has on our day to day lives. What a great guy Mr. Venturi is. (my cell phone's spell checker keeps trying to correct his name to Mr. Venturing, which is kind of cool.) Great movie, now on to part 2.

  • This film definitely needs a second viewing! It is jammed packed with information
