seeing photos of Barnett Newman's Broken Obelisk being installed reminded me of this 1980 photo I bought and then never posted, because it just seemed like fuel on the fire, but the fire's been stoked plenty without it, and it feels dishonest to not point out that there were white supremacist nazis in Houston in 1979, and that no one, probably including the deMenils who commissioned him, knew Philip Johnson was a nazi too.

Yet finally it is a love story. William Middleton has shown us so many ... I want to salute the incredible accomplishment that is this book. Through painstaking research William Middleton has captured two of the most remarkable, accomplished and unique characters I have encountered. Jean and Dominique DeMenil were not only important philanthropists who helped build Houston and change the world, they were innovators and an inspiration to all those who aspire to lives well lived nourished by ideas, culture and humane values. This is not just another book on the Dynasty set; it is a moving and stunningly researched piece of biography that ranges from fascinating French history to art, architecture and more. Yet finally it is a love story. William Middleton has shown us so many beautiful things. Heartily recommend. Go to Amazon

Excellent book. Very detailed biography of a successful couple ... Excellent book. Very detailed biography of a successful couple that span a long period of time and is rich of international travels, art and business with a very interesting view of Texas and Houston at the beginning of the oil boom. Go to Amazon

For the Love of Art, for the Love of this Book! Jean and Dominique de Menil give new meaning to art lovers. This magnificent couple wound their way from France, and we’re talking deep roots, both families who went back centuries, all the way to Houston, developed a deep love for modern art, not just as collectors but true patrons, which evolved into so much more. Their love for each other, their adopted city, their history, their spirituality, their family business (Schlumberger, we’re talking oil), which Jean (who later changed his name to John) became an integral part of, their extreme wealth and how they used it to benefit others, their interests beyond the arts, their lifelong relationships with artists, dealers, museum directors, and important leaders, is described at length in William Middleton’s biography DOUBLE VISION. Go to Amazon

Arrived early in good condition Excellent book Go to Amazon

A Great Biography of a Wonderful Couple Who Made a True Difference Congratulations to the author, and also to any reader inclined towards brilliantly researched biographies about admirable people of vision, culture, taste and last, but not least, faith. A beautiful, transporting reading experience from which I felt I emerged better informed and certainly inspired. Go to Amazon
