LOCATION: CINCINNATI, OHIO, USAARCHITECT: ZAHA HADIDDATE: 1939BUILDING TYPE: ART CENTER

The Contemporary Arts Center One of the first contemporary art institutions in the United States is a pioneering

contemporary art museum located in Cincinnati, Ohio. In the program elements Hadid talks about an "Urban

Carpet"; a continuous surface between the street outside and the wall inside. "A sense of movement will be

sweeping into the building from the square......you move your body on a journey though the building..." The

concrete, steel and glass building features undulating levels and ramps to accommodate the varied shapes,

scales and media of contemporary art. The galleries, that appear to float over the main lobby, connect and inter-

lock like a three dimensional jigsaw puzzle, allowing for unobstructed viewing from all sides.
