![]() ![]() The prize itself is “silly” from the perspective of awarding an achievement and puffing an ego, but prizes and media coverage propel certain work into the spotlight. I’ll try to be more precise about that point. I’m sure FLW, Kahn, and others have done things that we wouldn’t approve of in 2018, but the work that they created should be judged independent of that.

It’s not about silly prizes, but about the perceived value of the work itself being conflated with the morals and ethics of the artist. I’m sure many great artists and architects have been assholes.
