Stan Allen Tonight

Allen referred to Piranesi's Campo Marzio Ichnographia as "his subject" at the Eisenman/Krier symposium at Yale last year--this is based (I assume) on his "Piranesi's Campo Marzio: An Experimental Design" as published in ASSEMBLAGE 10, 1989. I have no idea what Allen's overall thesis is now-a-days. Allen's work in 1989 is now for sure one that was done with incomplete and incorrect knowledge, and (I believe) it is germane to architectural history and theory to correct past mistakes.
For the record, I do not live with my parents, especially since my father is dead. I do, however, live in the same house since 1958. I haven't done any work for VSBA since the early 1990s, and even then it was very minimal 3D cad work as a consultant.
