...Patience. Instantly critics snapped that the sick need a view. Corbu's partisans reply that the bedridden prefer a supine view of blue sky, birds and stars. All that the hospital must do to grow is go to sea, expanding, said the architect, "like an open hand." There is no façade or front door: ambulance boats can dock conveniently under the hospital at gondola ports. As much an adaptation of the Swiss lake villages, which Swiss-born Corbu knows well, as a ducal palace or a gondola garage, the design should please Venetians. Yet, however harmonious this...

There are no recent works of major scale, and I am afraid that the New York branch of this gallery may have sold off the best things there...
