Central Academy of Fine Arts Museum Travel Guide
Scenic spot introduction:
The Art Museum of the Central Academy of Fine Arts is one of the most modern art exhibition halls in China. It is located on the campus of the Central Academy of Fine Arts at No. 8 Huajiadi South Street, Chaoyang District. It was designed by the famous Japanese architect Arata ISOZAKI. The art museum is located on an arc-shaped site. The curved transition between the stone curtain wall and the roof forms a shell, like a three-dimensional boomerang. The three entrances and exits are cut with the wing tips and corners of a boomerang. Large areas of the entrances and exits are made of glass curtains, which increases the permeability of the building and meets the need for lighting. The exterior wall of the museum is covered with gray-green slate, which is in harmony with the gray brick color of the building, and the coordination is full of changes. There are no columns in the middle of the museum, forming a large-area exhibition hall. The lighting in the exhibition hall uses a horizontal section of the shell to form a crescent-shaped lighting roof, which meets the light requirements with natural lighting. The entire building has a unique appearance and reasonable layout.Attractions distribution:
