(New Museums.) http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2010/11/27/arts/design/museums.html?ref=design#nouvel ... A long NYT article on huge new museums being built in Doha and Abu Dhabi. There's also some video of architects Pei, Gehry, Foster, and Nouvel and their projects. The link is to video of the most interesting of the projects, Jean Nouvel's Abu Dhabi Louvre and Doha National Museum... Whether either of these two designs will even marginally perform well as places to actually display art is highly questionable, but it's thinking about light and movement on a grand scale, which is exciting.
