N.Y.Times Article Updates Arcosanti



Allison saw an article in the New York Times the other day
 on Paulo Soleri and Arcosanti,
(from which the above photo is taken).

discusses the handing off of the reigns from Soleri to Jeff Stein as president
 of the parent Cosanti Foundation,
and includes a good slideshow.

This is a big shift for Arcosanti, 
which represents both alternative building and lifestyle,
take a look and let's wish them luck.

For more on my posts on Soleri, Arcosanti, and Cosanti
please click on Paulo Soleri under LABELS on the right side bar.

In the next post we will get back to Maria Eggleston.

Windows And Doors At Arcosanti And Cosanti


My last post had no pictures so I hope to make up for that now.

 I have covered the work of Paolo Soleri enough now 
that I will make his own label covering his work
 at Arcosanti and Cosanti as well as the updates I have added 
about the amphitheater he designed in Santa Fe, N.M.

Paolo Soleri Amphitheater Update #3

     Laura Paskus has a good article in the Santa Fe Reporter that came out today on the Paolo Soleri Amphitheater and the Santa Fe Indian School. The feature article is Redemption Song. For more links on Soleri, Arcosanti, and Cosanti go to my update from July 12th - Paolo Soleri Amphitheater Update.

     Paskus is an excellent writer and her article is well balanced on what has become quite a controversy in the Santa Fe area about whether the amphitheater should be torn down or not. She also includes some history on the Santa Fe Indian School. Enjoy.

The Paolo Soleri Amphitheater Update

     This blog has followed the work of Paolo Soleri in three previous posts: on April 4th - Arcosanti; on April 16th - Cosanti; and on May 25 a link to the plans to demolish Paolo Soleri Amphitheater in Santa Fe. My wife just alerted me to two articles in the Santa Fe Reporter on the issue: from June 11th - Frances Abeytas Fire and June 21st - Stewart Udalls Life. I am not sure where things stand at this point but I am not hopeful that the amphitheater can be save.

Paolo Soleri Amphitheater

      Since I have covered Paolo Soleri's work at Arcosanti on April 4th and Cosanti on April 16th in this blog after we had visited there back in March it was with some interest that I saw an article in the Santa Fe New Mexican  newspaper this morning on the attempt to save the Paolo Soleri Amphitheater in Santa Fe. Take a look.

Cosanti



On April 4, '10 I did a post on Arcosanti and now I want to write 
about Cosanti which is located near Scottsdale, Arizona 
and is where Paolo Soleri lives and works.

Arcosanti



We recently stopped by both Cosanti near Scottsdale, Arizona
 and the better known Arcosanti about 50 miles north of there.
