Gail Pittaway reviews Towards Modernism: The Walter Cook Collection at Te Papa by Justine Olsen published by Te Papa Press.

When you hear about architect Mies van der Rohe and his famous Farnsworth House in Plano Illinois, little is said of the client.  Today you'll learn the real story of Dr. Edith Farnsworth from author Nora Wendl, we talk with Todd Gannon about architect Frank Israel, plus authors Kevin Murphy and Mary Anne Hunting on women architects in the early days of Modernism. Later on, tacos with musical guest Gabrielle Stravelli. 

Robert Beattie was many things: an architect, a designer of iconic public buildings on Long Island, and a decorated World War II veteran. But most importantly, he was the father of today's guest, Richard Beattie. So we're celebrating Father's Day by celebrating the life and work of Robert Beattie. As an architect, Beattie's specialty was mid-century modern architecture. Working with clean lines, natural light, and an appreciation of the surrounding landscape, he designed many iconic buildings in our area. If you live in the town of Islip, you'll know his MacArthur Airport terminal, the core buildings of Suffolk County Community College's Ammerman Campus, and St. Lawrence Church in Sayville. Richard takes us on a tour of his father's buildings and details his life. Robert was part of the Greatest Generation, earning a Silver Star as an Alamo Scout in the Philippines. He got his start in architecture with the firm Shreve, Lamb & Harmon in New York City. Robert then founded his own firm, Dobecki & Beattie, and embarked on a storied career on Long Island. We discuss the changing architectural landscape of Long Island in the 1960s, the Beattie family's connections to Oakdale, and Robert's devotion to being a father and an architect.

John Arnold built his fortune in energy trading by surrounding himself with smart people, maintaining emotional detachment, sensing market imbalances through first-principles analysis, and focusing with laser intensity on a single niche until he dominated it completely. Now he's applying that same analytical rigor to philanthropy, where he's discovered that changing human behavior for the long term proves far more challenging than predicting natural gas prices, and that the academic research meant to guide social policy is often riddled with perverse incentives and poor methodology. Tyler and John discuss his shift from trading to philanthropy and more, including the specific traits that separate great traders from good ones, the tradeoffs of following an "inch wide, mile deep" trading philosophy, why he attended Vanderbilt, the talent culture at Enron, the growth in solar, the problem with Mexico's energy system, where Canada's energy exports will go, the hurdles to next-gen nuclear, how to fix America's tripartite energy grid, how we'll power new data centers, what's best about living in Houston, his approach to collecting art, why trading's easier than philanthropy, how he'd fix tax the US tax code and primary system, and what Arnold Ventures is focusing on next.

In this conversation, Paul Weaver interviews John West about his journey from academia to the Discovery Institute, discussing the concept of 'Stockholm Syndrome Christianity' and its implications for modern Christian leaders and institutions. West critiques the shift in evangelical institutions away from biblical inerrancy and highlights the historical context of modernism and fundamentalism. He emphasizes the need for a robust defense of biblical truth and the dangers of theological liberalism, particularly in light of contemporary figures like Andy Stanley and Mike Licona.-John West shares his journey from Seattle Pacific University to the Discovery Institute.-The concept of Stockholm Syndrome Christianity explains how Christians can align with secular culture.-Many evangelical institutions are drifting away from biblical truth.-Historical context shows that the theological compromise is not new.-The need for genuine Christian higher education is crucial for future generations.-Biblical authority is central to the health of evangelicalism.-Critiques of contemporary leaders like Andy Stanley and Mike Licona highlight issues with biblical authority.-Mike Licona's views on "flexible inerrancy" raise major concerns. -The importance of calling out theological liberalism in evangelical circles.-A lack of pushback against liberal theology is troubling for the future of the church.00:00 Introduction01:55 Dr. West's Journey and Institutional Changes04:55 Understanding Stockholm Syndrome Christianity10:06 Historical Context of Modernism and Fundamentalism15:10 Symptoms of Stockholm Syndrome Christianity19:57 Critique of Contemporary Christian Leader - Andy Stanley23:39 Critique of Christian Scholar - Mike Licona 29:50 The Future of Evangelical Institutions

Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - John 16:29-33 - The disciples said to Jesus, "Now You are talking plainly, and not in any figure of speech. Now we realize that You know everything and that You do not need to have anyone question You. Because of this we believe that You came from God." Jesus answered them, "Do you believe now? Behold, the hour is coming and has arrived when each of you will be scattered to his own home and you will leave Me alone. But I am not alone, because the Father is with Me. I have told you this so that you might have peace in Me. In the world you will have trouble, but take courage, I have conquered the world." Memorial of Saints Marcellinus and Peter, Martyrs Saints Marcellinus and Peter, pray for us! Bishop Sheen quote of the day 2) The architect who fought modernism, and inspired a Sacred Architecture revival: One does not necessarily expect to hear the language of warfare coming from the mouth of Duncan Stroik while discussing sacred architecture. Bespectacled and bow-tied, the renowned church architect cuts the figure of the Yale-educated professor... https://www.ncregister.com/features/architect-duncan-stroik-profile 3, 4) Public sin requires public reparation, part 2 https://onepeterfive.com/public-sin-demands-public-reparation/

In light of recent conversations about the crisis of masculinity, let's revisit Dr. Andy Oler's book Old-Fashioned Modernism: Rural Masculinity and Midwestern Literature. I sat down with Dr. Oler to discuss the persistent anxiety about masculinity, the role of regional literature in American modernism, and the need for an expansive definition of the Midwest. We also talked about literary representation of futuristic equipment such as the cabbage transplanter. And for our scholar friends, Dr. Oler offers tips on how to secure texts that are not available in libraries or archives.  Andy Oler is a professor in the Department of Humanities and Communication at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Daytona Beach.  Learn more about your ad choices.

How does a personal passion project become the world's largest archive for modernist residential design?In this episode of Practice Disrupted, Evelyn Lee sits down with George Smart, founder and CEO of USModernist, to explore how a personal interest blossomed into a vital national resource for architecture enthusiasts and professionals alike. George's journey takes us from a late-night internet search inspired by his own house hunt to leading a nonprofit that documents, preserves, and promotes modernist homes across America—and along the way, he offers insights into the importance of architectural heritage and community building. George opens up about the origins of US Modernist, starting 18 years ago as a local website cataloging houses in North Carolina's Triangle area after rediscovering childhood memories linked to his architect father. He details the organization's organic growth to national prominence and the pivotal moment a realtor's call about magazines in a wet basement led to the creation of a massive, freely accessible digital library of over 5 million pages. George discusses US Modernist's unique approach of archiving by architect, the critical role documentation plays in saving homes often dismissed as "that weird house down the street," and shares compelling stories of preservation successes, including moving an entire house to prevent its demolition. He and Evelyn discuss the surprising makeup of the modernist fan base (mostly non-architects!), the challenges realtors face with these unique properties, and how architects can better connect with potential clients by engaging with the communities that celebrate this architectural style. "The vibe in these homes is wonderful for living. It's more relaxed, it's more open, with light and air. The improvements in glass and steel and insulation and technology have made these great houses from the 50s even better now when they're remodeled." - George Smart The episode concludes with George's advice for architects looking to connect with this passionate audience and his thoughts on the future stewardship of USModernist.Guest:George Smart, HAIA, is the Founder and CEO of USModernist, the world's largest nonprofit archive dedicated to documenting, preserving, and promoting modernist residential design. What started as a personal project cataloging local houses has grown into a major national resource under his leadership. He is also the host of the popular US Modernist Radio podcast. Driven by a lifelong passion for modernism, partly inspired by his architect father, George has applied his background in strategic planning to build a dedicated community and extensive digital archive ensuring these unique homes are recognized and saved. He himself built and lives in a modernist home. Is This Episode for You?

  We're celebrating May, Historic Preservation Month, with an episode on the Modern houses of the 1950s and 1960s.    Could you live in a glass house? New Canaan, Connecticut's Mid-Century Modern homes designed after the Second War are world famous. In addition to Philip Johnson's Glass House, now a museum, New Canaan has homes designed by Marcel Breuer, Eliot Noyes, Frank Lloyd Wright and Edward Durell Stone. Each one is a part of architectural history and is a masterwork of the era's most talented architects. But by the 1990s, people began to demolish these relatively small homes sited on large lots. People in New Canaan  began to band together to save these artworks-”machines for living”.  Towns across Connecticut have at least one or two good Mid-Century Modern homes worth saving and celebrating.    Host Mary Donohue discusses what a homeowners and community members can do to help save these modern homes. Her guests are Gwen North Reiss, historian and author of New Canaan Modern: A Preservation History published by the New Canaan Museum and Historical Society in 2024 and Mary Dunne, Deputy State Historic Preservation Officer for the Dept of Economic and Community Development and homeowner of an architect-designed,  Mid-Century Modern home.     For more information on New Canaan's Modern houses, order your copy of Gwen North Reiss's book New Canaan Modern: A Preservation History from the New Canaan Historical Society.

Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”Author Jim Valois takes us on a journey through the dangerous waters of modernism – not the technological or cultural kind, but the theological heresy that threatens to undermine Catholic teaching at its core.For young people seeking solid ground in a world of shifting values, this confusion can be particularly devastating.The conversation opens with Jim's personal story of reverting to Catholicism after years in evangelicalism. His experience illuminates how poor teaching and modernist influences can drive faithful Catholics away from the Church, only to have them return when they encounter the fullness of truth preserved in authentic Catholic tradition.Pope St. Pius X recognized this danger over a century ago, calling modernism "the synthesis of all heresies" and implementing reforms to combat its spread."Truth is not a something, truth is a somebody – Jesus Christ." By returning to Scripture, the Catechism, and the Church's living tradition, believers can find their way through the fog of modernism to the clarity and peace that only unchanging truth can provide.Jim's Article "Defeating Modernism" @ the Catholic ExchangeOur Ladies Prophecies By Jim ValiosDownload the Claymore Battle Plan for Men! Follow us and watch on X: John Paul II Renewal @JP2RenewalOn Rumble: JohnPaulIIRCIf you're interested in being a sponsor of the Become Who You Are Podcast, please email us at Info@JP2Renew.org Support the show

Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - Luke 24:35-48 - The disciples of Jesus recounted what had taken place along the way, and how they had come to recognize Him in the breaking of bread. While they were still speaking about this, He stood in their midst and said to them, "Peace be with you." But they were startled and terrified and thought that they were seeing a ghost. Then He said to them, "Why are you troubled? And why do questions arise in your hearts? Look at My Hands and My Feet, that it is I myself. Touch Me and see, because a ghost does not have flesh and bones as you can see I have." And as He said this, He showed them His Hands and His Feet. While they were still incredulous for joy and were amazed, He asked them, "Have you anything here to eat?" They gave Him a piece of baked fish; He took it and ate it in front of them. He said to them, "These are My words that I spoke to you while I was still with you, that everything written about Me in the law of Moses and in the prophets and psalms must be fulfilled." Then He opened their minds to understand the Scriptures. And He said to them, "Thus it is written that the Christ would suffer and rise from the dead on the third day and that repentance, for the forgiveness of sins, would be preached in His Name to all the nations, beginning from Jerusalem. You are witnesses of these things." 2, 3, 4) Father Gerald Murray answers questions about current events going on in the Church today

In this hard-hitting episode, Jim Valois joins Bear Woznick to expose modernism as the many-headed heresy infecting today's Church and culture. A revert to the Catholic faith and author of Our Lady's Prophecies, Jim shares his powerful conversion story—from reading the New Testament alone as a teenager to discovering the rich tradition of the Church through Scripture, the Catechism, and the Fathers.The conversation takes on deceptive philosophies, confusion about identity and truth, and the way modernist theology dilutes the Gospel. Jim issues a clear call: return to authentic doctrine, form your soul in truth, and stand up boldly for the faith—even when it costs you everything.

Modernist architecture makes special use of light and color, and with us today, architect Wid Chapman, color expert Sara McLean, and musical guest and expert skater, Laura Pursell. 

This podcast is a little different because it was filmed on location at Scottsdale Ferrari Art Week 2025. Tony Abeyta is a famous painter, jeweler, and curator, and he assembled all of these modernist voices together for the exhibit "Modernism in the Desert." The artists include: Fritz Scholder, Charles Loloma, Michael Kabotie, Lloyd Kiva New, Paolo Soleri, Ed Mell, and more.There's a group of individuals that all connect to the same time frame of about 1950 to 1970 and they have relationships with Arizona, whether they were born here or the worked here. Tony was kind enough to walk us through the exhibit and speak on the individual works.You see, Tony is such a wealth of information when it comes to art. The exhibit he put together took a lot of time and effort and I'm not sure anything like this has ever been done before, and I don't know if it'll ever be done again.

Join Keri Smith and Mystery Chris for a LIVE #PoppedCulture on Wednesday, August 17th, 2022 at 8pm CDT as we try to walk through a history of the worst of the worst in architecture. We'll touch on Modernism, New International Style, Le Corbusier, the Bauhaus school, Futurist and Fascist architecture, Post-Modernist architecture and even Batman and Gotham City.

In the decades preceding World War II, professional architecture schools enrolled increasing numbers of women, but career success did not come easily. Women Architects at Work: Making American Modernism (Princeton University Press, 2025) by Dr. Mary Anne Hunting and Dr. Kevin D. Murphy tells the stories of the resilient and resourceful women who surmounted barriers of sexism, racism, and classism to take on crucial roles in the establishment and growth of Modernism across the United States. Dr. Hunting and Dr. Murphy describe how the Cambridge School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture in Massachusetts evolved for the professional education of women between 1916 and 1942. While alumnae such as Eleanor Agnes Raymond, Victorine du Pont Homsey, and Sarah Pillsbury Harkness achieved some notoriety, others like Elizabeth-Ann Campbell Knapp and Louisa Vaughan Conrad have been largely absent from histories of Modernism. Dr. Hunting and Dr. Murphy describe how these innovative practitioners capitalized on social, educational, and professional ties to achieve success and used architecture to address social concerns, including how modernist ideas could engage with community and the environment. Some joined women-led architectural firms while others partnered with men or contributed to Modernism as retailers of household furnishings, writers and educators, photographers and designers, or fine artists. With stunning illustrations, Women Architects at Work offers new histories of recognized figures while recovering the stories of previously unsung women, all of whom contributed to the modernization of American architecture and design. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

#jordanpeterson #gaza #israel #truth #syrianchristian Watch this episode Right Now and Ads-Free on our independent platform: https://remnant-tv.com/v/1368?channelName=RemnantTV In this episode of The Underground, Michael J. Matt covers civil war in Ethiopia, genocide in Gaza, and the Christian massacre in Syria. Going back to 2017, Michael cites his own coverage of Syria's President Assad's alleged “gassing his own people” story that convinced the U.S. to join Israel in pushing for regime change in Syria – a move that today has left Syria in the hands of Christophobic terrorists. So, was he “gassing his own people”? Next us, the Bishop of Jerusalem thanks the King of Jordan for standing with the Palestinians against Israel – a sentiment that is now leading to the arrest of student on college campuses here in the U.S. So, is Jerusalem's bishop also an antisemite? Plus, a new kerfuffle over “Christ the King,” just in time for Holy Week again. This one has the Anti-Defamation League teaming up with Jordan Peterson to call conservative critics of Israel “pharisaical” blasphemers for abusing the Name of Christ. This is big since it represents the beginning of a major civil war among American conservatives. So, where do you come down on this one -- with Jordan Peters and the ADL, or Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson? And, finally, a word on Holocaust denial – BASTA!
