Archinect's critical round-up for the new Renzo Piano-designed Whitney Museum
The notion of "beautiful in the way that a beautifully engineered piece of industrial machinery is beautiful" brings to mind one of the conceptual models of OMA's 2001 Whitney Museum Extension design (for the Madison Avenue site).
