A view of the unusual architecture--the Quadracci Pavilion--designed by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava. The sail-like extension is known as the Burke Brise Soleil and is opened and closed on a regular (though subject to change) schedule.
Inside the foyer, Windhover Hall, a 90-foot-high glass ceiling directly under the Burke Brise Soleil:
A very cool glass sculpture in Windhover Hall.
A hallway connecting Windhover Hall to the permanent collection exhibits. The left side is a wall of windows facing east, looking out onto Lake Michigan. Special exhibits are housed to the right.

Hi there, Mortal Coil.
Wow, that’s an extraordinary building. I’m going to see if I can find a photo on the web of it’s sails/wings in the closed position. Thanks for posting up these great pictures.
