Perhaps no one is anticipating the Feb. 17 public opening more than Jeanne Gang, who masterminded what will be a new modernistic landmark — and undoubtedly a destination — for New York City.
Wandering into an area that is about the size of a hockey rink with 23-foot walls, museumgoers will eye the digitally driven “Invisible Worlds” — colorful projections suggesting infinity. The 12-minute immersive experience is meant to reflect how all life is interconnected, whether that be DNA, ecological or communicative.
In an interview, Gang spoke of the patience that she knew ahead of time would be required “to push through little by little to get through it step-by-step. It’s not just on some site out in the middle of nowhere. This is New York City with an existing building and so many constraints with the site, and trying to protect the [museum’s] park. We just knew it would take a really long time.
Rather than create “some shiny object out in the park,” Gang set out to give visitors access to the aforementioned 30 connections. While non-architects might approach making a building as just that — constructing a physical structure — Gang envisioned facilitating the movement throughout the space. However ethereal that might sound, Gang explains, “It’s an internally driven design.
