Richard Meier Interview

So it seems Meier has an exhibit in his honor at some new museum - the Louise T. Blouin Foundation. Bloomberg news has an interview with Meier:

http://www.ara-pacis-museum.com/images/richard-meier-thumb.jpg"Meier happily takes credit for two recent Rome buildings. One is the uncharacteristically curvilinear Jubilee Church, with three sail-like arches, in a working-class suburb. A more central landmark is his glass-and-travertine container for the Museo dell'Ara Pacis, the newest edifice in historic Rome since Mussolini's day. Flooded with light, it contains Augustus's Altar of Peace, from 9 B.C."
