This architect argued for the building of structures with "a spiritual quality" which conveys a "feeling of eternity" in his essay "Monumentality," written while he was a junior partner of Oscar Stonorov and George Howe. Seven glass blocks form his unrealized plan for a work in Battery Park, the Memorial to the Six Million Jewish Martyrs. He constructed a residence from two cubes attached at a 45 degree angle in his design for the Norman Fisher house. He designed the Indian Institute of Management, and he argued for the separation of "servant" and "served" in architectural spaces. One of his buildings features a ceiling made from tetrahedral concrete honeycombing, and another is an art museum consisting of a series of parallel barrel vaults. In addition to the Yale Art Gallery and the Kimbell Art Museum in Fort Worth, his designs include a medical research complex built around a central court with a water channel pointing toward the Pacific Ocean. FTP, name this American Jewish architect who designed the Salk Institute in La Jolla.
