GM does outstanding pieces but imo doesn’t meet the prize criteria ie “significant contributions to humanity.. through the art of architecture.” In fact a tiny handful of Australian clients benefit. Students, publishing houses and academia may fawn, yet there are many other Australian architects who’ve made far greater “contributions to humanity” who don’t fit the tired trope of an eccentric “solitary genius” doing what the judges think Australian architecture is or should be. Also little buildings of tin likely don’t threaten the prize funders the Hyatt Foundations bloviated hollow delusions of US superiority.

Glenn's contributions can be seen through more contemporary architects in Aus, you can see his influence on reintroducing sustainability in many new buildings. Each of his buildings are contributions to humanity through their lightness, their consideration to the local environment, and thus the people of Australia. Maybe only a few clients benefit (although he does have many built and unbuilt community buildings, largely focusing on outback and aboriginal communities), but his buildings speak to a better future of australian architecture.

I like Edmond Capon's statement about red brick & tile roof dwellings & endless suburbia

how wonderful to be able to charge 20% of construction costs and pontificate.

no not 20% how wonderful to be able to look from the outside and comment on things you have little or no knowledge nor appreciation about
