Sunday August 18, 2013 Update

Hello Everyone:

I just wanted to check in and let all of you know what's going on.  First, I'd like to give a shout out to the eagle-eye of Joe Redpath, who informed me that the image of the Serpentine Gallery I post on my blog about Peter Zumthor and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art was not designed by Mr. Zumthor but by another well-known architect Daniel Liebskind.  The image has been changed on both the blog and pinterest board.  Thanks Joe for spotting it and letting me know.  Speaking of Peter Zumthor and the LACMA, in today's edition of the Los Angeles Times letters to the editor (http://www.latimes.com), two of my fellow Angelenos had plenty to say regarding Christopher Hawthorne's article last Sunday about Peter Zumthor.  One letter writer expressed concerns about the Tar Pits and why that wasn't being addressed in the proposed redesign.  Another letter writer wanted to know why it was necessary, once again, to import an architect to inject some culture into us West Coast hicks when we have so many fine architects already working and living in the City of Angels.  Good question.

I have some great topics on preservation and urban planning coming up this coming week.

Finally, I've posted the images of the week on Pinterest http://www.pinterest.com/glamtroy.  Go and check it out.

As always you can like me on Facebook http://www.facebook.com/lenorelowen or follow me on Twitter http://www.twitter.com/glamavon.  I also post article related to this blog on google + http://plus.google.com

Talk to you tomorrow
