Both are about creating spiritual effects by manipulating spaces. But they will only be effective with these spaces clear from distractions. Imagine the exhibits in the museum hung on the concrete blocks of the Eisenman's memorial, do you think it would have the same effect.<BR/>I think that is exactly why all books and publications prefer to show the interior of the museum before all the exhibits were place there because it's much better that way.<BR/>So as a memorial it is a great piece of architecture but as a museum I am not sure though.Bash Mohandishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03055989023327042412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1662501521619219373.post-49245515891956051902008-03-03T09:45:00.000+00:002008-03-03T09:45:00.000+00:00Bash,What do you consider architecture?To me the J...Bash,<BR/><BR/>What do you consider architecture?<BR/>To me the Jewish Museum is a building for experiencing spaces.
