New National Gallery, Kimbell Art Museum, Museum fur Kunsthandwerk
Spans three different decades to show striking examples of modern museum design.
The New National Gallery in berlin (1968) was Mies van der Rohe's last great building, a 'temple' to art in glass and steel.
Louis Kahn's Kimbell Art Museum (1972) is a building of severity and restraint, with rhythmical spaces and a refined treatment of materials.
Richard Meier's Museum fur Kunsthandwerk in Frankfurt (1985) is a subtle and intricate building of shifted grids and superimposed planes.
