Getty Museum, Los Angeles

The woefully low resolution of the web just does not do justice to our fine, fine Richard Meier Getty Museum. There are a few nods here as well to the Robert Irwin Getty Garden. But, there is so much more on the gardens to come. Conversations need to take place about “A conditional art”. And we need to ponder further Heraclitus and “the unity of opposites”, Patanjali’s “equanimity” in pairs of opposites and the Zen Buddhism perspective that Samsara and Nirvana are one.

For now let’s just appreciate the shear visuals of Meier’s Aristotelian architecture.
