do you know this old story about Rohe ?
It was happened maybe in the 30's, I don't remember exactly. Rohe was
invited by the French government as one of the masters of Modern
architecture. And of course there was a very pompous ceremonial with many
official personalities in the Beaux-Arts school of Paris, and I don't know
for what reason, but Rohe was late and all people lost patience. Suddenly,
the headmaster of Beaux-Arts, a man with an academic mentality and a bit
has been, said : "miss, miss... where is she that miss ??" ...
haha, everytime I heard about Rohe, I recall this funny story ! :-D
thanks for your comment.
