A HOUSE FOR JIMI
HENDRIX


Hey, Joe…
Hey anybody…
Hey
ourselves…
What is life
?
And how
would life be possible, without passion ?
Unfortunately
it does seem to be possible, for so many people.
But we
invite you, now, towards PASSION.
Nothing else
but passion.
PASSION,
PASSION, PASSION.
Let us not
forget, for Frank Lloyd Wrong:
CREATIVITY =
EXUBERANCE.
But he was
wrong… he was not right.
He was
wrong, as all the great artists (and architects) were and are.
Of course
they are wrong, because they suggest to us to live differently.
To attempt
to move beyond our limits.
To be those
“arrows of longing” Nietzsche invited us to be.
Are we up to
the challenge ?
We only have
to try.
This year
there are 50 years since Jimi Mozart died.
Or should I
say Amadeus Hendrix ?
The
bourgeois and the morose professor would tell us that we are deadly wrong, that
we simply cannot compare Mozart with Hendrix, Amadeus with Jimi.
Why not ?
It is very
possible that if Mozart lived now his name would have been Hendrix.
Very good
relatives, Amadeus and Jimi.
Getting
along very, very well.
Let’s
imagine A HOUSE FOR JIMI HENDRIX.
For this
eternally young man who transformed the guitar into a magical toy… and let’s
not be nostalgic.
Let’s have
vitality.
Let’s have
exuberance.
Let’s die before
we die.
Let’s bring
the same energy into our buildings that Jimi brought to his music.
Let’s dream
and let’s sing and let’s build.
Even if, for
now, only through our imagination.
