Lo avrei comperato comunque...

Lo avrei comperato comunque perchè I.M.Pei è un mio mito, ma non si tratta affatto di una edizione europea (tedesca) del dvd americano, infatti è codificato region 2 e non si può vedere se non sul computer e comunque cambiando le impostazioni. Quindi occhio: non potete vederlo alla tv se non avete un lettore region free. Per il resto PEI è un mito e il dvd merita

American Dream realized thru Architecture
2007年3月17日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
I am a fan of I.M. Pei and if you are a fan of Pei, I highly recommend that you see this dvd !
I see Pei thru John Hancock Building in Boston. This glass skyscraper has a blade-like black strip niched along the entire height of building. Seeing it from the ground level, one cannot but be amazed at the thickness/size/amount of steel panels used to make that simple strip perceivable from afar. The glass tower contrasts strikingly to the brick context of Back Bay and the strip turns the building into a razor-like crystal. Such intensity of focus on the essence of a problem is the nature of Pei. This amazing DVD, orated by Pei himself, portrays such character.
Early in his childhood, Pei lived in Suzhou (regarded as Venice of Asia) and he was exposed to rock farm artists. Pei provides a great anecdote on the practice of these artists. He claims his base of practice follows the heritage of those rock artists. To combine the man-made and nature-made and to regard "time" element as an quintessential aspect of creative enterprise.
Pei's life in Cambridge is a testimony to the exciting encounters with modern masters at MIT and Harvard. Life in NY with Zeckendorf, Donald Trump equivalent of that era, is an experience of seeing architecture from the real estate perspective. Finally, his own practice that ignited the blast of winning major competitions. All of these stories are well orchestrated in the film.
His major projects, such as Louvre and JFK museums, have great hidden stories. Miterand's vision for Paris was only possibly perfected by Pei's talent. Jacquiline's election of Pei among heroic Mies and Kahn is a contemporary drama.
Unlike a typical boring documentary film, oftentimes a person depicting divorced from his/her works, this DVD performs as a companion to his actual buildings. The film is a verbal oration of his spatial creation. Sometimes, the camera pulsates with light and texture of space, othertimes, the camera jazzes with background music to the tonal rythym of his space.
If there is an American Dream in architecture, here is a man who achieved it. If you liked this film, I highly recommend a film on Louis Kahn, 1996(?) version.

Very good

This documentary provided an excellent 90-minute overview of I.M. Pei's career and main works, such as the Louvre Pyramid in Paris, the addition to the National Gallery of Art in D.C., the Meyerson Symphony Center in Dallas, TX, among others. There isn't much discussion of Pei's collaborators. His (late) wife provides valuable insights, but is the only person interviewed about him. The rest of the movie is Pei talking about his works, giving us a tour of his works, etc. The documentary doesn't go over Pei's personal life, except quickly about his wedding and one sentence about his taking the US citizenship in the 1950s and his children all being American. It would have been interesting to be given more insights into his creative process. In any case, I.M. Pei is definitely one of the leading architects of the 20th century.

Good PBS video documentary from 2011 of I.m. Pei's life and work.

I've been an admirer of I.M. Pei's work since the early 1980's. "First Person Singular I.M. Pei" is a really good PBS documentary video produced in 2011, of his work and life. Some parts of the video documentary are grainy in appearance because of the splicing together of film clips, but for me that adds to the authenticity of the work.
