On October 2, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art's Resnick Pavilion opens to the public. The 45,000 square foot gallery is the newest art space at LACMA and the latest building on the campus to be designed by Italian architect Renzo Piano. Critics have already nicknamed the Resnick the "Baby Piano" since it indeed looks like the smaller sibling of the Broad Contemporary Art Museum, which opened in 2008. LACMA Director Michael Govan discusses how it fits into his art and architecture vision for the campus, and architecture writer Sam Lubell explains why Piano is the go-to architect for so many art museums.
