The Art Behind the Architect - New York Sun (subscription)
That Mr. Calatrava is a great architect, possibly the most brilliant alive, is or should be common knowledge by now. Wherever his buildings alight, you hear almost unanimous praise. People can't stop talking about the stadium he created for the 2004 Olympics in Athens, the signature cultural landmark of the games. Even unbuilt, the transit hub he designed for the World Trade Center site is the only part of that dreary spectacle to have transcended controversy and become a popular and critical success. The catenary of cubes he envisions for a 90-story residential tower at 80 South Street similarly captured the imagination of New Yorkers - before ground had even been broken. And his large-scale design of the City of Arts and Sciences in his native Valencia - with its science center in the shape of an eye that opens and shuts - is widely seen as a wonder of the post-industrial world. Shimmering models of all four projects, as well as a stunning computer-simulated walk-through of the transit hub, are on view at the Met.
