- The provincial Rietveld
As part of its Rietveld Year, the Centraal Museum in Utrecht is presenting an exhibition called Rietveld’s Universe, an incredibly ambitious title for an exhibition that is far too modest in comparison. Under the leadership of Ida van Zijl, the work of Rietveld has once again been dusted down in an attempt to correct the prevailing historiography. To that end, the NAi, Utrecht University and Delft University of Technology jointly set up a research project with a view to defining more precisely the position of Rietveld in relation to the history of modern architecture. And in particular to alter the perception that his contribution is limited to that one famous house and that one famous chair.ArchiNed.nl – news
A swipe from the British historian Banham seems to have been one of the factors that determined the direction of the Rietveld’s Universe project. For it was Banham who asked how it was possible that an 'unremarkable, provincial' fi…

- Kempe and Thill dispel the myth
On Friday October 28 the Rotterdam Maaskant Prize for Young Architects 2005 was presented to Oliver Thill, one of the two architects who head up the Rotterdam-based 'expat' office Atelier Kempe Thill. In this interview they dispel the myth that the Netherlands offers a favourable climate for young architects.ArchiNed.nl – news
‘André was born in 1968, I in 1971 – that’s why.’ This is prize-winner Oliver Thill’s laconic reply to the suggestion that statutory reasons alone meant that the Maaskant Prize was awarded to him personally – winners must be aged 35 years …
