Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden

DesignArtClosed · Opens 10amFreeL'Enfant Plaza (Metro — Green, Yellow, Orange and Blue lines; 7th & Maryland Ave exit)

Joseph H. Hirshhorn industrialariak emandako 6.000 artelan ingururi esker 1974an ateak ireki zituen Hirshhorn museoa arte moderno eta garaikideari eskainitako Smithsonian erakundearen gunea da. Gordon Bunshaft arkitektoaren eraikina 231 oineko zabalera duen hormigoizko zilindro ireki bat da; lau zutabe sendoen gainean altxatzen da iturridun patio baten gainetik, eta hiru solairutan zehar eraztun zentrokideetan antolatutako galeriak biltzen ditu. Bildumak ibilbide aberatsa proposatzen du, Rodin, Brancusi, Matisse eta Hopperengandik hasi, Pollock, Rothko eta de Kooningetik igaro eta gaur egungo sortzaileetaraino; horiekin batera, aldi baterako erakusketa handinahiek zein Mark Bradford, Barbara Kruger eta Laurie Anderson artistek berariaz sortutako instalazio iraunkorrek osatzen dute eskaintza. Ondoko Sculpture Garden lorategia itxita dago 2023az geroztik, Hiroshi Sugimotok diseinatutako eraberritze-lanak direla eta, eta 2026ko urriaren 31n berriro irekiko dela iragarri dute.
