The Madrid-based competition winners describe their winning proposal to reimagine the Dallas Museum of Art "as a reflection of the original building, transforming the relationship between art, landscape, and community into a balance of memory and innovation."
In February, the Dallas Museum of Art launched a “Reimagining the Dallas Museum of Art International Design Competition" for a major expansion that will add flexible gallery spaces, reorganized entrances and circulation, and a reapportioned interior.
The museum received 154 design submissions from all over the world. On Thursday, the DMA announced that it has selected six finalists.
The unveiling of Phase I of the O'Donnell Athenaeum, designed by Morphosis Architects, will debut the first of three buildings in the new 12-acre cultural complex at UT Dallas. “I'm thrilled to welcome some of the finest works of art in our city to the new campus museum," said UTD President Richard C. Benson.
The DMA said a refreshed and expanded campus will enable it to better serve the diverse city of Dallas and will create additional gallery space to accommodate an expanding collection and strengthen the museum's work with its communities.
