The signature feature of the new addition is an entry canopy that soars 34 feet above the pavement, joining the new addition to the existing building, designed by Antoine Predock. The canopy, which creates an outdoor gathering spot, was made with aluminum grating and stainless-steel panels fashioned from portions of the existing building that were demolished to make way for the new gallery space.
