...profile architecture. The Minneapolis Institute of Arts has just added a stately new annex by Michael Graves. Last month the city opened a fascinating new public library by Cesar Pelli. Both of those came on the heels of Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Meuron's intricate addition to the Walker Art Center. The $125 million building that Nouvel has delivered is actually three theaters: a thrust stage that seats 1,100, a proscenium house for 700 and a 200-seat "studio" for new plays.

The last approach is the best of all approaches. It’s the Johnnie Walker Blue Label of approaches, or the pocket rockets, Ace-10-10 on the flop, and another Ace on the turn.
