It all began at Karl Lagerfeld’s Left Bank apartment in 1997. The award-winning Japanese architect Tadao Ando was invited to dinner, and when he arrived, he met, there in the 18th-century entrance hall, the French financier François Pinault, a noted collector of contemporary art. “Was he aware that I would be there?” Ando muses now. “I am not sure. I sensed that Mr. Pinault might have asked Mr. Lagerfeld to introduce me to him, to understand what kind of person and architect I was.”
The Pritzker Prize–winner transformed the historic Bourse de Commerce into a sublime Paris home for the Pinault Collection.

Basil Kincaid ’10, a CC art major, multi-media artist, and recent visiting artist at the college have been named members of the United States Artists’ 2021 Class of Fellows. This year 60 artists were chosen.
Goodwin, an award-winning playwright who took over as director of the FAC last year, was recognized in the theater and performance category. Kincaid, who graduated from CC with a concentration in Studio Art and an emphasis on drawing and painting, was honored in the traditional arts category. Each will receive a $50,000 unrestricted cash prize.
Goodwin and Kincaid are the second and third artists affiliated with Colorado College to be recognized by United States Artists. Stephen Scott, a CC professor of music and composer and founder of CC’s Bowed Piano Ensemble, was honored in 2008.

Answering the phone and having the person on the other end sing softly for 10 minutes, just for you. Another vocalist, this one stationed outside your house for a five-minute concert. A piano recital stretching from dawn to dusk.
