In what is a tribute honoring his parent’s intellectual rigor and legacy, Jim Venturi, the 36-year-old son of Denise Scott Brown and Robert Venturi, is producing and directing a film about the highly regarded yet sometimes misunderstood architects. Called Learning From Bob and Denise, a title that riffs on the influential duo's 1972 book, Learning From Las Vegas, the feature-length film is nearing completion and its trailer will be shown June 4 in Chicago at Pecha Kucha Night, a networking event for young architects.
