The Rebirth of the AGO


That's right, after three-long years of reconstruction, the day has finally arrived for the rebirth of the AGO. Today at 4 p.m. is the official public opening and will be open for free admissions for the remaining weekend.

Model design of the AGO.
The large window facade are one of the key design features that are architecturally unique designed by Frank Gehry.


Some things that I'm excited to see are the large window facade facing the street where the experience with art is created with the dynamic relationship with the street. When pedestrians are walking by the gallery they can see the people inside viewing the artworks. Simultaneously, the gallery viewers can see the pedestrians watching them. Frank Gehry definitely created the civic space that artists would be proud to share with the public.

My inner art-nerdiness is jumping for joy! Hahaha...
