  • This video previews the work that has officially started on architect Frank Gehry's plans to "unclog the arteries" of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, as part of a major renovation project that will transform the layout of the historic building.
    The Canadian-American architect's masterplan for the 1920s structure involves removing interventions made by Venturi Scott Brown in the 1980s, and opening up the circulation to visitors can better orientate themselves within the museum.
    Major alterations to the layout include the removal of the central auditorium, which will open up views right through the building. The space in its place will be known as the Forum, and include a grand staircase that will connect vaulted walkways below to the floors above.

    What an impressive building. The way they open up the building it not only creates more living space. Views from within & from whatever angle seem to did a different dimension & depth to it. The people of Philadelphia should be very proud to have such a beautifully restored & adapted building to meet the needs of the 21st century. I sure would love to visit this great US city that has the most iconic museum.

    It does not look like a Ghery project. I liked!

      It looks like they simply borrowed ideas from Egyptian ancient buildings. Doesn't take a great architect to do that.

    Gehry is showing himself to be adept with adaptive architecture. Here, instead of a program that starts with a tabula rasa, he is working with an established entity that has landmark status for anyone with a personal connection to the museum. This is hardly a surprise to those of us who know his creativity to be infused with intelligence as well as thoughtfulness.

    So they are replacing functional space with empty spaces.

    where are the updates, has anything actually been built or was it just hype.

    Seems to incorporate sensible planning decisions, however, disappointing architecturally. Was there a lot of resistance from the museum's directors? Because there is no visually striking architectural moves. That austere classicism needed to be challenged and broken up, including on the main facade and the intimidating front court. Striking architecture draws people and makes a place significant. That worked with Bilboa. It is perplexing that this idea wasn't pushed, including by Gehry himself. Was he restrained? In which case an architect such as Chipperfield or Pawson would have been more suitable.

    Mr. Gehry should have done way better. this is just a removal of some non load bearing walls and furniture organization (the front desk). this is good but museum renovations should be more than that.. something like the Louvre in France

    I've been going to the Philadelphia Museum of Art my whole life. I was ready to hate this but it looks awesome. However, they don't need to spend all of that money to improve the museum. They just need to haul away that piece of garbage Rocky statue.

      it is ok to keep classy classic and minimalist not something to attract the star wars crowd. people come to see the art not the art of the building

    For the benefit of those high school kids interested in this profession, there is rampant fallacy held by people including myself before I entered architecture school that architects are technical people in traditional STEM sense in addition to working with aesthetics but that is complete false. Architecture education in US is 99% humanities discipline i.e. art, history and english with virtually no science classes to receive a diploma.

    making more building space wont guarantee to increase the interest . museums are just colorful graveyards

    many confused people throw around false equivalency by comparing pritzker prize to nobel prize. pritzker prize is just a vanity project and is a branding effort for wealthy pritzker family name. moreover, the prize committee is composed of mostly random buffoons who have no knowledge of building design and hence the prizes has no credibility. its akin to trash collector in nobel award selection committee making award for physics. architecture is a more a humanities degree than anything. most top tier us college or university do not offer this degree for a reason. harvard graduate design school has lot of people from second, third rate undergraduate schools because most kid smart enough to get into top tier schools are too intelligent to get into this non technical profession.

    It always "what I feel..." with these kind non technical artsy kind of people. Never "what I know..." And I know from experience they are quick to being political and petty and architects office is certainly that plus very stifling.
