"Portrait of William Williams The grave of William Williams MP, Kensal Green Cemetery William Williams (12 February 1788 – 26 April 1865), was a Welsh Radical politician. Born in Llanpumsaint, Carmarthenshire, and having had only a basic education, Williams began working in a cotton warehouse in London and soon built up his own business. In 1833 he became a member of the Common Council of the City of London, and in 1835 was elected MP for Coventry. After losing the seat in 1847, he became MP for Lambeth in 1850. As a result of a speech made by Williams on 10 March 1846, a government inquiry into the state of education in Wales was launched, culminating in the "Treachery of the Blue Books". In 1863 he chaired the meeting that launched the campaign for a University of Wales. William Williams was a generous benefactor to the village of his birth, paying for the construction and furnishing of the village school in 1862.Carmarthenshire County Council, plaque in Llanpumsaint village park William Williams died on 26 April 1865, after falling from his horse in Hyde Park, London.Thomas, Arwyn (2004) Hanes Llanpumsaint, Carmarthenshire County Council Libraries and Community Learning Section He is buried in Kensal Green Cemetery, London, in a grave north-east of the main chapel, alongside his parliamentary friend Joseph Hume.

In collaboration with architects Florian Busch and Christoph Cellarius, Ito transformed Mies van der Rohe’s glass shrine into an exciting space, a completely new experience in which art and architecture have melt in an unusual fusion. Following Mies' rigorous Cartesian logic, the three architects' project transformed the strictly homogeneous exhibition hall into a continuous yet subtly differentiated space where the thirteen artists exhibiting on the upper hall started interesting dialogues and so heightened the intensity of the exhibition's theme. ==References== "Berlin - Tokyo / Tokyo - Berlin Die Kunst zweier Städte", Berlin, 2006. editors: Angela Schneider, Gabriele Knapstein, David Elliott u. a. 350 pages in German language, publisher: Hatje Cantz Verlag, == External links == *Neue Nationalgalerie, Berlin-Tokyo/Tokyo-Berlin.
