“…embodies the ideals of enhanced public connection and accessibility to art and its architecture.”

“…‘urban pavilion', which encourages people to approach and engage with it in various ways.”

“The junction of the ‘white box' gallery is expressed with lightness and openness — which contrasts with the darkness and intimacy of the ‘black box' cinémathèque.”

“Fifteen gallery spaces have their own particular character and function. Each differs in scale, material and use of light.”

“The flexibility of the overall structure accommodates contemporary art's variable nature.”
