Abstract

From New York to Little Rock At the Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts, Gang tackled a building that had grown over the course of 80 years to include eight additions and a multitude of styles. But New York isn't Little Rock, and the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) isn't the Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts (AMFA). PROJECTS AT FIRST BLUSH, the challenges were remarkably similar: design a major addition to a sprawling museum that had grown piecemeal over many decades, creating a new face for an old institution and cleaning up a host of nagging problems in the process; integrate architecture and landscape at an urban project set within an existing park; respect the historic fabric, but inject a big dose of bold design to energize the client's mission.
