Temptation of Influence (2025)
Temptation of Influence is a filmic collage and an essay exploring how architectural ideas are passed down, reinterpreted and – inevitably – misread across generations. Centred on Irish architect Shane de Blacam, it begins in his Dublin study, where Palladio’s plates frame Louis Kahn’s sketches. From Inishmaan to Rome, from Veneto to New Haven, the film follows a path of conversations, buildings and landscapes – tracing the uncertain mechanics of architectural inheritance. Contributors include Kenneth Frampton, Níall McLaughlin, Sheila O’Donnell and others.
