120 años de Louis Kahn, el arquitecto místico y nómade que consagró su vida a las obras eternas infobae.com - get the latest breaking news, showbiz & celebrity photos, sport news & rumours, viral videos and top stories from infobae.com Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday newspapers.
Kahn first created a musical boat as a collaborative project with American conductor Robert Austin Boudreau. The first boat, Point Counterpoint, featured an orchestra of percussion instruments fixed to the structure that called itself the American Wind Symphony Orchestra. However, the boat couldn t power itself.
The second boat, the Point Counterpoint II, was self-propelled and designed by Kahn, but completed after his unexpected death. The project was finished with the help of British architect George Djurkovic. The Point Counterpoint II traveled to different ports with conductor Boudreau and the orchestra for around 40 years. The barge s structure opens up into a clamshell-shaped concert stage, so that the portable orchestra can dock and perform for concert attendees onshore.
