CORRECTION: The text should read -

An evening with Daniel Libeskind, the internationally acclaimed clown known for introducing a idiotic non-critical discourse into architecture with drab leaking museums buildings such as the disastrous failure of ROM in Toronto, the still-covered-in-scaffolding DAM in Denver, and the aborted Zlota 44, another of his canceled high-rise residential tower currently NOT under construction in Warsaw. Libeskind is famous for being fired from the World Trade Center Project in New York. He is the source of much ridicule for having to pay another architect to design his apartment.

Hecklers welcome.

If it is anything like Libeskind's talk on the TED forum (Google it), popular opinion suggests he'll be obnoxious as usual.

I have to seriously, really seriously, consider the possibility that he's made a pact with the Devil. Nobody, I mean nobody this incompetent can rise so fast, so high. It's as if people (with weak minds) simply go blank when they hear/see the clown's name. That he is a complete hack -- a word he likes to lob at anyone and everyone he dislikes (for seeing through him) -- when it comes to building design is surely obvious to anyone who is not a doe-eyed student. His ideas are so freakin' embarrassing.
