Museum of Modern Ice
For those of you who missed it, here are some images from the Museum of Modern Ice. The 95 foot long mural titled "paintings below zero", by the artist Gordon Halloran, was installed in Chicago's Millenium Park during the month of February.
The mural was maintained by artist who continually added ice to the back side of the wall to create a continuously changing composition of colored ice.
The most stunning aspect of the mural is the vibrant colors and textures that were created in the ice itself. 
It has been a while...
Ok, It has been a while since my last post, but here are a few images that I have been collecting for the last several months....
Above and Below: Interior views of the wintergarden, which is the main circulation space in the building. This is the one space where you get views back to the Mississippi River through the double glass facade.
Above: Exterior view at entry with the Davenport "skyline" reflected in the double glass facade.

Musee de l’Orangerie
The Musee de l’Orangerie renovation, completed in 2006, was designed by the architect Olivier Brochet. The renovated galleries contain some of Claude Monet’s water lilies paintings, which remained in place during the renovation. Here is an interesting article about the renovation from the BBC.
