I.M. Pei,1917 was born in Guangzhou on April 26th and spent his childhood in Hong Kong. 1935 was sent by his father to the University of Pennsylvania to study architecture. After that, he transferred to MIT, 1940 got a bachelor's degree from MIT, and 1946 got a master's degree from Harvard University School of Architecture and Design. I.M. Pei was founded in 1955, and is now a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. 1In June 1996, he was elected as a foreign academician of China Academy of Engineering.
perform
I have won the gold medal of American Institute of Architecture, the gold medal of French Institute of Architecture, the Imperial Japan Award and the Pulitzer Prize for Architecture. Among them, the Pulitzer Prize for Architecture is equivalent to the Nobel Prize, which is the highest honor in architecture. From 65438 to 0986, President Reagan awarded the Bayes Medal of Freedom, which was awarded to outstanding African-Americans. The value of this medal is higher than any award he has won. Bayesian representative works include Colorado Center for Atmospheric Research, Luce Memorial Church of Donghai University, Philadelphia Social Ridge Residential Area, new york Kennedy International Airport Terminal, China Bank Office Building, Dallas City Hall, East Hall of National Gallery of Washington, Boston Kennedy Library, Beijing Xiangshan Hotel, Napoleon Garden, etc. The Bank of China Building of China Bank (1982- 199 1) is the tallest building in all the design schemes of Bayes, which actually symbolizes the peak of Bayes' career.
contribution
Architecture incorporates the concept of natural space, which dominates Bayesian life works. "Let the light do the design" is a famous saying of Bayesian. As a top architect in the world, he has contributed to the renovation of old districts and the development of new districts in Montreal, Denver, Philadelphia, Boston, new york, Dallas, Singapore and Beijing. As an architect in China, when all architects in China look to the west, he devotes himself to developing his own architectural language for China. He carefully combines modern architectural art with the traditional architectural features of China. In addition, he also cooperated with China Institute of Architectural Science to train and train architects in China, which has made important contributions to the modernization of architecture in China.
evaluate
I.M. Pei is regarded as the most influential architect. His design is concise, neat, reasonable and orderly, which is a portrayal of Bayes' works. The improvement and continuous research on the situation, space, building materials and technology are the reasons for the improvement of his architectural standards and the essence of his works, which is also the main reason for Pei's immortality in architecture and his works.
