I. M. Pei

Abstract: This 7 page report discusses the grand pyramid entrance to the famous Louvre museum in Paris. Designed by Chinese-American architect I.M. Pei, the pyramid generated a great deal of controversy over the actual design, the future of French culture and design, and the fact that such a truly French institution was being changed by somebody who was not French. However, the pyramid has now come to be viewed as a great architectural and stylistic success. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
