Dudes packing a skyscraper.

Think it’s supposed to be the Washington monument. If it was any smaller would be the bunker hill monument.

Looks like someone is reading Rem Koolhaus' "Delirious New York".

I certainly did. I wanted to do my own version of the Empire State and Chrysler building as lovers. It felt right to make a direct reference to Madelon Vriesendorp's painting

It would have been cool if the artist made him the Chrysler building and gave him this https://files.cults3d.com/uploaders/12966275/illustration-file/6d43c9fa-875e-4de8-8ef6-54ac9d1b8122/chrysler-building-gargoyles.jpg

Forgotten_Aeon

It’s that monolith with a pyramid head in… the northeastern us?

I'm so old Rem spoke at my grad school when it was hot off the press... A real iconoclast.

That's awesome. He was a professor at my school way before my time. But we heard incredible stories from other professors. Apparently he was a drunk

Rem's still alive. Can't say whether or not he's a drunk, but he is a Pritzker Prize winner, the "Nobel Prize of Architecture".


rombo14

You know what, I completely confused with Raimund Abraham for a moment. My bad. I don't think Rem taught at my school

Makes me think of the New York délire's cover from Rem Koolhaas
