Bucky Fuller in the New Yorker

In this issue of the magazine, Elizabeth Kolbert writes about the life of Buckminster Fuller and about an exhibition about Fuller at the Whitney Museum of American Art. “By staging the retrospective, the Whitney raises—or, really, one should say, re-raises—the question of Fuller’s relevance,” Kolbert writes. “Was he an important cultural figure because he produced inventions of practical value or because he didn’t?

An interesting retrospective, and the exhibition certainly looks worth checking out if you're in NYC.
