Excerpt:
“The museum’s main mission is to create “a place that seamlessly integrates art, architecture, and nature into a serene and contemplative environment.” And though that list puts art at the forefront, visitors actually experience the environmental elements in reverse: first driving along a tree-lined road; then greeted by a minimalist, modern visitor center prefacing the rest of the campus’s beautiful, thoughtfully designed architecture. Then, a first peek at Jeff Koons’s Split-Rocker, a mammoth living sculpture of flowers in the loose shape of a rocking horse’s head, cresting over the horizon of a meadow so lush that even a megastar like Koons seems moderated.”
