Richard Buckminster "Bucky" Fuller (July 12, 1895 July 1, 1983) was an American architect, author, designer, futurist, inventor, and visionary, sometimes called the Leonardo Divinci of our time. In 2010, the Whitney Museum of American Art organized an exhibition about Fuller. See the Whitney's exhibition trailer here: http://youtu.be/f1Rq0fpdjS0
