The Nun's Scrum

Jørn's Folly

"Utzon made a building well ahead of its time, far ahead of available technology, and he persevered through extraordinary malicious publicity and negative criticism to build a building that changed the image of an entire country.

[Frank Gehry, when Utzon was awarded the prestigious Pritzker Prize in 2003]
