Like a flamenco dancer: in the backyard area of the Mies Pavilion. (Photos by C-M.)
Since it’s Summer Friday, there’s no Digest today (or for the remaining Fridays in August). In lieu of something informative, here’s a little show-and-tell from my summer vacation: specifically, my visit to Ludwig Mies van der Rohe’s German Pavilion from the 1929 Barcelona International Exhibition. Enjoy some graceful, travertine-laden early Modernism. I’ll be back in the chair on Monday.
