Synopsis
Mid Century to Next Century is a pictorial history of architecture, art, and science at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies. Jonas Salk enlisted architect Louis Kahn to design and build the Institute, on the cliffs, overlooking the Pacific Ocean, in La Jolla, California. It was Salk's choice of Kahn, and their collaboration in designing the research facility, that would result in the Institute becoming an icon of 20th-century modern architecture. Salk's early leadership and his assembly of a world-renowned faculty enlivened Kahn's buildings and garnered global acclaim for the Institute. For Kahn and Salk, their partnership and the Institute they designed and built would burnish their legacies as scientific and architectural icons of the 20th century.
