Post by Mecanoo

Francine Houben presented today the new vision for the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen - Rotterdam "The Mecanoo Wing: Catalyst and Connector" at the Theater Rotterdam, an initiative from Bas Van Der Pol, Director at AIR - Architectuur Instituut Rotterdam. More https://bit.ly/2U7u0wD Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen has a unique international collection. Boijmans considers the wings of the architects Van der Steur (1935, national monument) and Bodon (1972, national monument in proceedings) as part of the collection. Both wings are restored to their original strength and with the addition of the Mecanoo wing, the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen ensemble is transformed into a beautifully clear complex with good logistics for both visitors and the back of house. The Museum Garden is also undergoing a metamorphosis.
