Description:
Since its opening in 1972, the Kimbell Art
Museum has won acclaim for its classic modern building designed by the
great American architect Louis I. Kahn (1901–1974). Kahn's innovative
use of natural light and subtle articulation of space and materials
enhance the experience of the art. The building's gracious proportions,
fine craftsmanship, and beautiful landscaping lend a further sense of
serenity and restraint. The Kimbell Art Museum is widely regarded as one
of the most outstanding modern public art-gallery facilities in the
world. |
