Marking 25 years of the Quadracci Pavilion at the Milwaukee Art Museum, designed by Santiago Calatrava.
Completed in 2001, the pavilion is defined by the Burke Brise Soleil, a kinetic structure that opens and closes above the building, responding to changing conditions throughout the day.
Set on the edge of Lake Michigan, its movement has become inseparable from the architecture and the city’s waterfront.
