"Drawn by rave reviews in the press and by word of mouth, devotees of art and architecture are streaming here to visit the new home of the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth..Tadao Ando, the celebrated Japanese architect who designed it, has grabbed attention for Fort Worth the way Frank Gehry did for Bilbao, Spain, after his Guggenheim Museum opened six years ago. The two buildings could not be more different. Gehry's is wild, shiny and curved. Ando's is stately, serene and meditative."
