Groninger Museum
GRONINGEN
The Groninger Museum that opened in 1994 is not merely a casing for art, it is a work of art in itself, designed by the Italian architect Alessandro Mendini. It's a principle that is occurring to an increasing extent in contemporary (museum) architecture. It is an artwork in the centre of the city, traversed by public space where passers-by are directly confronted by all kinds of works of art. The museum shows modern and contemporary art, as well as historic arts.
