Wrapper: 40 Possible City Surfaces for the Museum of Jurassic Technology

"Of his Museum of Jurassic Technology, David Wilson once said, ""Part of the assigned task is to reintegrate people with wonder."" And wonder is what museum visitors do, especially at exhibits like a woman's horn, a bat frozen in a slab of lead, and microminiature sculptures framed in the eyes of needles. Asked to redesign this Los Angeles museum's facade after suffering structural damage in an earthquake, Southern California architects Robert Mangurian and Mary Ann Ray explore the vast and unimaginable possibilities."Ralph Rugoff is the author of 'Wrapper: 40 Possible City Surfaces for the Museum of Jurassic Technology' with ISBN 9780965114493 and ISBN 096511449X.
