Glenstone 博物馆 | Thomas Phifer and Partners

Located on 200 acres of rolling tall grass pasture and unspoiled woodland, the Glenstone Foundation provides a serene and contemplative environment for visitors to view contemporary art. The new Glenstone Museum significantly expands on the late architect Charles Gwathmey’s first museum building, providing new exhibition spaces, collection storage, and foundation offices. From the visitor center, the new museum appears as an ensemble of simple masonry forms embedded in the landscape. At the museum entrance, the forms are defined as a collection of concrete gallery pavilions. These pavilions, each housing the installation of an individual artist, are linked by a passage facing a courtyard water garden.

Glenstone Foundation 位于 200 英亩连绵起伏的牧场和未受破坏的林地，为游客提供了一个宁静和沉思的环境，供游客欣赏当代艺术。新的 Glenstone 博物馆在已故建筑师 Charles Gwathmey 的第一座博物馆建筑的基础上进行了扩建，提供了新的展览空间、收藏品存储和基金会办公室。从游客中心看，新博物馆就像一个嵌入景观中的简单砖石形式的整体。在博物馆入口处，这些形式被定义为混凝土画廊展馆的集合。这些展馆，每个展馆都安置了一位艺术家的装置作品，并通过一条面向庭院水上花园的通道相连。

The pavilion exteriors are composed of six-foot-long, gray cast concrete blocks, which naturally vary in color and texture. In contrast with the slight, but deliberate irregularity of the blocks, the windows, with glass as large as nine feet by thirty feet, are precisely detailed windows and set flush into stainless steel mullions. The visitor center and cafe are lined with natural cedar timber. The pavilions are lit with natural light, which enters the gallery rooms through an oculus or lay lights in the ceiling depending on the requirements of the featured works. The architecture of the new Glenstone Museum is characterized by direct materiality and timeless construction.

展馆的外部由六英尺长的灰色浇注混凝土砌块组成，其颜色和质地自然变化。与轻微但故意不规则的街区形成鲜明对比的是，窗户九英尺*三十英尺，精确细致，并与不锈钢竖框齐平。游客中心和咖啡厅内衬天然雪松木。展馆采用自然光照明，根据特色作品的要求，通过灯光设备或天花板上的灯光装置照亮画廊房间。新Glenstone 博物馆的建筑特点是直接的物质性和永恒的建筑。
