I.M. Pei, who was revered as one of the last great modernist architects, has died, Pei Cobb Freed & Partners confirmed. He was 102 years old. His son, Li Chung Pei, told The New York Times that his father passed away on 16 May, overnight. His most significant buildings include the Museum of Islamic Art in Doha, the glass-and-steel pyramid at the Musée du Louvre in Paris, and the Kennedy Library in Boston. Hong Kong's Bank of China Tower, China's Suzhou Museum, Japan's Miho Museum and America's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame are among his other celebrated projects.
