For its three-month run, expect to see even more architects and their associates circling the Kimbell in silent reverence because inside are Kahn’s drawings, models, videos, and photographs. It is an architectural rarity, a museum display of an architect’s preparatory work housed in one of the greatest buildings designed by the artist.
Filling half of the Kimbell’s Kahn-designed building is a collection of his work organized by the Vitra Design Museum of Weil am Rhein, Germany.
