Milwaukee Art Museum - a photo on Flickriver

            This is Milwaukee Art Museum's Quadracci Pavilion. It was designed by the Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava and was completed in 2001. The museum's exhibits are housed in another building, which is adjacent to the pavilion. This pavilion has all the other functions including the main entrance and a spacious hall with a lake view.

Last year I revisited the museum for the first time in nine years. It was overcast that morning. I am not quite happy with the exterior photographs I shot that day. So, I upload this picture that I took in 2009. I think this piece of architecture would look most striking under blue sky. I didn't see blue sky that day but it still looks fine under the pastel coloured sky. For those who don't know this museum, this photograph might look unbalanced. I shot the roof portion of the pavilion and the passageway that is connected to the exhibition hall.
