PROJECT DETAILS

The Sam Fox Art Center project includes a three-story, 67,000-sf Kemper Art Museum, central plant, library, office space and art storage and a three-story, 34,000-sf sculpture and painting studios, shop areas and outdoor working court.

World-renowned Pritzker Prize-winning Japanese architect Fumuhiko Maki teamed up with Shah Kawasaki Associates from California to design the building. They brought together the Schools of Architecture and Art and the Departments of Art History and Archaeology and its Gallery of Art and Architecture Library.

The architectural features include limestone buildings with metal panel areas and numerous skylights. The design of the buildings had to have the same look and feel of nearby Bixby Hall, Givens Hall and Steinberg Hall built in 1928, 1930 and 1960 respectively.
