Building for Change
Arena presents a profile of Richard Rogers , one of the most original and controversial talents in architecture today.
It was Rogers, together with his Italian partner RENZO PIANO , who created the spectacular Beaubourg Arts Centre in Paris. Described variously as 'art hanger', oil refinery', 'cultural colossus ' - it looks like a giant meccano set, a bizarre and brightly coloured building rising out of the heart of traditional Paris streets. It caused a furore when first unveiled, but has now brought new life to the area, and attracts as many as 50,000 visitors a day, even more than Disneyland!
British architect Rogers has now returned to England to embark on even more ambitious projects - startling new home for one of Britain's oldest institutions, Lloyds of London, and a huge and much-debated scheme to enliven London's South Bank, the Coin Street Project.

On the Trail of Pat Hobby
The third of four short stories by F. SCOTT FITZGERALD which feature Pat Hobby, washed-up Hollywood screenwriter. They were written in the last two years of Fitzgerald's life while he was doing hack work in the Hollywood studios, and explore, with humour, the seediness beneath the tinsel.
