16.12.2002 - Getty Center in Los Angeles eröffnet (16.12.1997)
...
Wer Richard Meier in seinem Großraumbüro in Midtown Manhattan besucht, genießt einen fabelhaften Blick über New York. Der amerikanische Urenkel deutscher Vorfahren aus Frankenthal bei Würzburg zählt zu den weltweit präsenten Stararchitekten. Sein Markenzeichen sind elegante strahlend weiße Baukörper. Haute Couture. Die sonore Stimme des großen, rundlichen, weißhaarigen Architekturpatriarchen kündet von Erfolg und Selbstbewusstsein. Besonders stolz kann er auf das Getty Center in Los Angeles sein. Wie oft wurde dieser riesige Museumskomplex auf dem Hügel von Malibu schon mit der Akropolis verglichen? Doch Richard Meier sonnt sich lieber in einem noch schmeichelhafteren Vergleich:

Jean Paul Getty (1892 bis 1976)
Der große Kunstliebhaber unter den amerikanischen Milliardären.
...
Einige Zitate von und zu John Paul Getty (1892-1976) American oil executive and art collector:
The billionaire oil baron John Paul Getty was so cheap that he personally washed his own underwear every night, did not heat most portions of his PALATIAL home, and spent hours scrutinizing his grocery bills. He also installed a pay telephone at his English country estate to ensure that guests paid for their own calls!
At the age of 23, I was a millonaire and retired," John Paul Getty recalled. "Two years later I came out of retirement.
A man in his twenties who has known what it is to work can drink only so much champagne and paint the town only so many times before he wakes up to realise that he is wasting time and energy on meaningless things."

languagemuseum - National Museum of Language
(E?)(L1) http://www.languagemuseum.org/
As the concept of a language museum was being developed, it was quite early apparent that the theme of our national linguistic heritage was highly regarded as a topic that would interest many audiences. Perhaps nothing touches us so closely as the language that we and those around us speak. The telling of the story of this heritage is a powerful and dramatic one. It involves exploration, colonization, fierce struggles not only of men and weapons, but of language and culture. It witnesses the coming together of many peoples, and the birth of a new "American English." And sadly, it records the death, the extinction of many American Indian languages. The National Museum of Language wishes to tell this story to the people of America and the world. And so, as we slowly develop our plans, we begin with this theme.
