Architecture Art-chitecture It’s Not (Neither’s the “Art”)

Nicolai Ourousoff gives Zaha Hadid a tongue-lashing for her complicity in this Chanel consumption-vomitorium in Central Park, designed to house artworks made in homage to a quilted Chanel bag.
That’s just gross.
I thought that was the set for "Ugly Betty" at first.
I love it! Mostly because it looks like a giant coffin.
Zaha should turn in her Pritzker.
If you find this repulsive research PRADA in the desert.
Some "artist" enacted a similar structure in a stretch of vast desert..."coveted items" to never be touched.
The Chanel exhibit would appear to be a knock off...GASP!
And what's with that giant panel gap in the ceiling of the tunnel?
A retail Ozymandias. Once again the Law of Unintended Consequences proves itself. What was planned as an homage to ultra-consumption is now travesty.
