Masters Theses
“They [Africans] look upon their native arts and crafts primarily as the ‘locus’ of their national consciousness. In spite of a violent urge for the new, for progress and for high living standards, more and more of their valuable, innate culture and customs now are being reflected upon in new light, finding their own voice in the form of a new, healthy and surprisingly expressive art.”
“The ‘new’ is cleansed from any cliché imitating a style.
The ‘new’ does not evolve from cheap modernism.
The ‘new’ functions according to the climate and the situation.

Museums are one of the primary cultural icons of the city. As such, they embody ideas not only about history, art, or nature, but also about place. A great museum develops from ideas about its place.

Nicholas Patricios
Coral Gables in South Florida is lauded as one of America's finest early 20th century planned developments.

To better understand Paist’s ideas, his architecture, and his contribution to the architecture of Coral Gables it is necessary to examine his education and experiences during his formative years prior to his arrival in Coral Gables.
