With Antoine Predock In His Studio

On view this summer at the Albuquerque Museum is Drawing Into Architecture: Sketches and Models of Antoine Predock.  Included are almost 300 works on paper, along with clay architectural models, representing, in a small way, the 50-year career of the internationally-known New Mexico-based architect.

KUNM joined Antoine Predock at his Albuquerque studio for a half-hour conversation about the new exhibition (and the companion book now available from UNM Press) and about his decision in 1967 to base his practice in the state he calls his "spiritual home."

This shorter version of the interview aired during KUNM's broadcast of NPR's Weekend Edition on July 16, 2016.
