Recorded in November 2014.
Past as Prologue was a symposium held in November 2014 in honor of Michael Graves on the occasion of his fiftieth year in practice. Organized by The Architectural League and hosted by Parsons The New School for Design, the day brought together architects, designers, educators, writers, and others to celebrate Graves’s remarkable body of work.
In the symposium’s closing conversation, Michael Graves takes the stage for the first time for a discussion with Peter Eisenman that makes evident their deep friendship and mutual appreciation.
