Pietro Belluschi (1899-1994) was more than an architect. He was an artist, teacher and philosopher.
This beautiful film follows Belluschi’s life and career, starting with his origins in Italy to his arrival in American in the early 1920’s.
‘No Perfect Answers’ takes you on a visual tour of Belluschi’s early homes and churches; simple, modern designs that define the unique architectural style of the Pacific Northwest.
Rich with comments from Belluschi himself, the film also features interviews with a number of noted architects, including I.M. Pei and Philip Johnson.
You’ll explore the timeless beauty of Belluschi’s Equitable Building, the country?s first modern office structure. You’ll trace Belluschi’s years as dean of architecture and planning at M.I.T. and his collaboration in designing New York’s Lincoln Center and controversial Pan Am Building. You’ll travel through Belluschi’s elegant and massive Saint Mary’s Cathedral in San Francisco. And you’ll understand why Belluschi often said:
‘In architecture there are no perfect answers, only the earnest search for the good solution.’
