New Taipei City Museum of Art Proposal / Behnisch Architekten

Courtesy of Behnisch Architekten

The principle behind the design by Behnisch Architekten for the new Contemporary Art Museum is for art to be experienced through a multitude of perspectives and perceptions. Art is not an isolated experience. Views change, rooms change and thus perception is altered. In order for art to take on a lifestyle quality it needs to be accessible. Contemporary art should be able to be viewed from the outside in, from across the landscape, from above, from below and through a series of lenses, both visual and cultural. More images and architects’ description after the break.

The museum program can be simplified into five categories; exhibition, learning, circulation, administration and services. We propose to interweave the exhibition spaces with the education spaces and the administration space. This created a dynamic relationship between passive and interactive experiences.
