About this title

Synopsis

Book by Museum of Contemporary Art (Chicago, Ill.)

Review

The fundamentals involved in creating a contemporary art museum are presented both visually, in color photos, and in writing as contributors explore the founding of a new art museum in Chicago. While at first glance this production might seem exclusive to Chicago readers, look again: the description of the project from funding through building and representations within contrasts a variety of issues and approaches to making a museum, applicable to any such endeavor and to students interested in architecture. -- Midwest Book Review
