Reflections on art and architecture by TIME critic Richard Lacayo.
The Assault on Yesterday's Versions of Tomorrow
A shameless link to my piece in the new issue of Time, which uses the opening of the Philip Johnson Glass House as a chance to talk about the fate of other Modernist houses that are not being as nicely preserved as Johnson's little gem. Which means they're being bulldozed, or at least threatened with that fate.
And for the truly dedicated, another link to a time.com slide show of the Glass House and its environs.
