Architecture
Created | Updated Mar 24, 2002
Architecture is the art of taking many roughly drawn lines completed at 3 a.m. on a Monday morning and turning them into a building. The finished building will of course never be like the plans, though they provide a general guideline of how the building should in theory stay upright. The most famous architect of the C20th was Frank Lloyd Wright, who enjoyed immense popularity in his lifetime until some even more popular foreign people came along. The best building on the planet is the Solomon R. Guggenheim museum in New York, which displays artwork much to the annoyance of artists, as people come to look at the building not the artwork. The best building not on the planet has yet to be constructed.
