Program Highlights

KNPR's State of Nevada Hour 1: Be-Longing Las Vegas: Mid-Mods
We look at mid-Mod architecture in downtown Las Vegas, and we'll ask why the stucco home replaced the Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired designs with their low-slung roof lines and glass-dominated living spaces. Architect critic Allan Hess joins the conversation, as we continue our weeklong look into livability in Southern Nevada, with reporter Adam Burke spearheading the series.
Hour 2: Art Critic Peter Schjeldahl
Peter Schjeldahl, the chief art critic at The New Yorker magazine joins us. We discuss contemporary and classic art, and the role of Las Vegas collectors in the world art scene.
