That's a feverishly overenthusiastic editor. I'm quite sure I did in the original draft. No, in fact Maya Lin, who was actually on a panel of judges which awarded the choice of design in the 9/11 Memorial, of course, designed the Vietnam Memorial. And I guess maybe I didn't actually, Neal, but certainly I was thinking about the Vietnam Memorial and how successful it's been. Pat Buchanan, I seem to remember, called Maya Lin a communist. And it was thought that by eschewing, by not having a figurative, not having actual soldiers, grunts, sort of recognized somehow, but having this trench or rift in the ground, there was something sort of shame-faced and negative and apologetic and defensive, and that brought up terrible memories from veterans, including veterans I knew, about feeling not sufficiently honored when they returned from their terrible mission. | that's a feverishly overenthusiastic. editor i'm quite sure i did in, the original draft. no, in fact maya lin who was actually. on a panel of judges which awarded the choice of design in the 9/11 memorial, of course. designed the, vietnam. memorial and i; guess maybe i didn't actually neal but certainly i was thinking about the vietnam memorial and how successful. it's. been. pat buchanan i seem to remember called maya lin a communist and it was thought that by eschewing by not having a figurative not having actual soldiers. grunts sort of recognized somehow but having this trench or rift in the ground there was something sort of shame-faced and negative and apologetic and defensive and that brought up terrible memories from veterans including; veterans i knew about feeling not sufficiently honored when, they returned from their terrible | That's a feverishly overenthusiastic editor I'm quite sure I did in the original draft No in fact Maya Lin who was actually on a panel of judges which awarded the choice of design in the 9/11 Memorial of course, designed. the, Vietnam Memorial And I guess maybe I didn't actually Neal but certainly I was thinking about the Vietnam Memorial and how successful it's been Pat Buchanan I. seem to remember called Maya Lin a communist, And it was thought that by eschewing by not having a figurative not. having actual soldiers grunts sort of recognized. somehow but, having this trench; or rift in the ground, there was something sort of. shame-faced and negative and apologetic and defensive and that brought up terrible memories from veterans including veterans I knew about feeling not sufficiently honored when they returned from their terrible | that's a feverishly overenthusiastic editor. i'm quite sure i did in the original draft. no, in fact maya lin, who was actually on a panel of judges which awarded the choice of design in the 9/11 memorial, of course, designed the vietnam memorial. and i guess maybe i didn't actually, neal, but certainly i was thinking about the vietnam memorial and how successful it's been. pat buchanan, i seem to remember, called maya lin a communist. and it was thought that by eschewing, by not having a figurative, not having actual soldiers, grunts, sort of recognized somehow, but having this trench or rift in the ground, there was something sort of shame-faced and negative and apologetic and defensive, and that brought up terrible memories from veterans, including veterans i knew, about feeling not sufficiently honored when they returned from their terrible mission. |
That, of course, was not the case. What's interesting about your, you know, the three calls have all actually been praising designs of poetic compression, rather abstract designs, which is not to say that heroic figures actually can't be quite moving too. But when the scale of a catastrophe is so great, and when you want to ruminate both on the loss of nearest and dearest and simply fellow Americans, and also the reasons why we lost them, and if you can bring it off with grace and depth and profundity, the abstract designs for me, at least, always beat the sort of, you know, slight frozen action of soldiers. I will say, I do think the one that works very - and Vietnam is, of course, an extraordinary success now - there was a lot of hostility. But the figurative design I think works rather well, better than I imagined it would, is the small, quite modest but rather beautiful Korean Veterans. And if you got any Korean veterans out there, which are figures. And that was, of course, the Winter War.
