This weekend, I took a walk through Emeryville's biotech neighborhood, and was moved by the monumental architecture of the Novartis campus. Turns out it was designed by famed Mexican architect Ricardo Legoretta: http://legorretalegorreta.com/

I have no training in art or architecture so this may be nonsense, but I find minimalist/abstract art and architecture makes more sense if I stop asking the question "what do I think of this building or painting" and ask instead "what does this building or painting do to me?"

A photo of a Legoretta building might not have caught my eye. But the building isn't a photo, it's an in-person experience. You can get the experience of vibrancy and power and peace from spending time near the building even if you never think of yourself as liking it.
