Was just scrolling through Atchain’s Vimeo channel to see if I could find any more leaked NYC stuff.

The commission eventually went to David Chipperfield, who was later dumped by the museum and replaced by Frida Escobedo. Her design has not been revealed yet.

Looks very bland. Why did they shut down a gallery for 4 years for this?
