Designed by the architect Steven Holl, it prises five translucent glass structures. By day, they provide an ethereal ambience in which to view the contemporary art on show and, by night, glow like Japanese lanterns adjacent to the main museum.39。Elizabeth Fullerton, Financial Times39。The most highly touted and maybe the best US building of the year was the astonishing Bloch Building, a wing of the NelsonAtkins Museum of Art in Kansas City. Architect Steven Holl (...) added a series of glassy galleries that spill down a green hillside, each gallery looking like an iceberg heaving itself up out of the ground. Because the museum is free of charge, visitors can move in and out at will, going between the indoor galleries and the outdoor sculpture gardens.39。Robert Campbell, Boston Globe39。Adding a new wing to a neoclassical museum, Holl devised a spectacular update on classicism: an irregular series of volumes that cascade down the museum39。s lawn and glow from within. The effect against the nighttime sky is nothing short of magical.39。Richard Lacayo, Time39。Steven Holl Architects demonstrated outstanding dedication and mitment to the campus transformation project at the NelsonAtkins Museum of Art. With your hard work and concentration on excellence, our partnership to create a visitor experience that visually delights and provides connection to the art is a success. The singlemindedness and enthusiasm demonstrated by Steven Holl Architects are praised and mended by every Trustee, staff member and volunteer. The tributes to your results have resonated around the world39。. Board of Trustees for Nelson Gallery Foundation, Nelson Atkins Museum, June 18, 200739。With the exception of Steven Holl39。s extension to the NelsonAtkins Museum in Kansas City, Mo., which opened to raves in the spring, no building by a prominent architect to debut this year escaped critical plaint or public ambivalence altogether.39。Christopher Hawthorne, Los Angeles Times39。Steven Holl Architects merges architecture, art and landscape into a unified experience for the Bloch Building at the NelsonAtkins Museum of Art in Kansas City. Indeed, the integration of art, landscape, and architecture creates a dynamic whole where visitors including this observer are bowled over by the experience of meandering through and around the exterior and interior spaces. As the museumgoer walks through the Bloch Building, he or she is aware of the changing spaces, elongated and flowing into one another39。.Suzanne Stephens, Architectural Record, July, 200739。By subtly interweaving his building with the museum39。s historic fabric and the surrounding landscape, he has produced a work of haunting power. For the art world, the addition, known as the Bloch Building, should reaffirm that art and architecture can happily coexist. (...) He has created a building that sensitizes visitors to the world around them. It39。s an approach that should be studied by anyone who sets out to design a museum from this point forward. 39。Nicolai Ouroussoff, New York Times, June 6, 200739。But it is on the inside that Holl shows his chops, using the most elusive and difficult materials: space and light. He has designed shapeshifting spaces that flow, like an unfolding narrative, down ramps and graceful steps, with a canted wall here, a curve in the high ceiling there, as a visitor moves through the galleries for contemporary art, African art and photography. Light spills in at unexpected moments, from above or from big panes of glass overlooking the garden.39。Cathleen McGuigan, Newsweek39。Der Architekt Steven Holl hat den Erweiterungsbau des NelsonAtkinsMuseums in Kansas City zum skulpturalen Ereignis werden lassen39。.Jorg Hantzschel, Suddeutche Zeitung, June 16, 200739。Nighttime is the best time to see the new addition to the NelsonAtkins Museum of Art。 that39。s when it runs down the side of the Kansas City Sculpture Park like a string of paper lanterns following the contours of a suburban lawn. That39。s when it shows why, according to Time magazine, it39。s the Most Anticipated Building of 2007.39。Judith H. Dobrzynski, Wall Street Journal39。(? The museum expects annual attendance to grow from 350,000 to 450,000 (? Mr. Wilson feels the shakeup is enough to induce repeat attendance, which he says is the standard by which the success of the museum39。s transformation will be measured.39。Jason Edward Kaufman, The Art Newspaper39。Lying along the eastern boundary of the site, the Bloch Building39。s luminescent vanes shift the entry court off axis in concert with Walter De Maria39。s reflecting pool, and then whisper by the stone to flicker and taper into the southern lawn39。. Michael Caldwell, Domus 904, June, 200739。A study in soft light and sharp contrasts, Steven Holl39。s Bloch Building transforms the NelsonAtkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, Missouri, from a respected regional institution into a focal point of worldwide attention. The dialogue between radically different yet interdependent buildings creates a contrast that heightens the features of each. Holl39。s design answers stone with glass, solidity with ethereality, ordered sequentiality with improvisational fluidity39。. Bill Millard, Icon, May, 200739。The building is not just Holl39。s finest by far, but also one of the best of the last generation. Holl has produced as striking and inventive a piece of architectural form (...) and yet it is a serene and exhilarating place in which to view art39。.Paul Goldberger, The New Yorker, April 30, 200739。What Holl39。s buildings have in mon is that all experiment with materials, with spatial arrangements and with ways of using light to delineate forms。 the results
