The Kimbell Art Museum unveiled Renzo Piano’s design for its new building opposite Louis I. Kahn’s 1972 landmark. While the site plan and section don’t reveal a heck of a lot about the design, it made me wonder why Piano is chosen not only for every other museum design (it seems) but for additions to important, and in some case iconic, pieces of Modern architecture.
