As part of the 50th anniversary of the Kimbell, expert engineers, architects, and art historians will discuss the working relationship of two brilliant Estonian-born colleagues: structural engineer August Komendant, a pioneer of precast, prestressed, thin-shell concrete, and Louis I. Kahn, creator of modernist architecture with monumental forms and poetic light.
Their dynamic but sometimes contentious collaboration produced some of the most innovative, acclaimed buildings of the 20th century, including the Salk Institute and the Kimbell Art Museum.
