I can’t know if upon seeing Laszlo Kiss (architect) in the street if I would punch him in the face, or invite him for drinks. What do you do to a person who fucked your chances at grad school? I mean in a way it opened up other routes for me. Stubbins for sure, I would not have been at Stubbins if I went to grad school in 1990-ish. But he (Laszlo) fucked me pretty good with that one bad grade. And then they (Ohio State) didn’t ask him back to teach again. Or maybe he chose not to come back to Ohio. People do that. Choose not to go back to Ohio. He did invite me to see his Soho studio (when I contacted him in NYC) and to guest crit at Parsons. So Karma speaking, I think we are golden/even. I would probably still ask him to drink with me. He taught me high modernism in like 5 minutes. That is not nothing.
