Una nueva entrega de este interminable serial lo anunciaba hoy en sus páginas The New York Times. El nuevo giro dado por los responsables del MoMA se apoya en la idea de considerar la Fachada del Folk Art Museum, como un "memorial". Parece ser la última entrega de este serial, solución salomónica, se tira el edificio, se mantiene la fachada como monumento. Será desmontada pieza a pieza y reinstalada posteriormente.

Contrary to what you may have read lately, the Museum of Modern Art is intent on carefully preserving the former American Folk Art Museum next door.

At least, the part of it that is most recognizable to the public: an 82-foot-high sculptural ensemble of 63 panels, cast in a gorgeous copper-bronze alloy [...] the somber facade has served as a memorial to itself, one of the first significant works of 21st-century architecture in New York [...]

“We will take the facade down, piece by piece, and we will store it,” Glenn D. Lowry, the director of the Museum of Modern Art, said in an interview last week.
