Architect Frederick Fisher has worked on cultural projects that include the Getty Villa, the Huntington and MoMA PS1. Now his studio is helping refresh the Natural History Museum.
The southern entrance to the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County in Exposition Park has long been a rather dour affair. Facing a grassy lawn and the L.A. Memorial Coliseum, the entrance consisted of three muted doorways tucked into the center of a long, windowless building from the 1920s with a vibe that was more secretive vault than public museum. That will soon change.
He took the front off the building and put in a scrim and let the light do what it did. I had the great luck of seeing that by accident. I was riding my bike and I saw the empty storefront and I was like, 'What the heck is this?' It was this piece about perception. And, literally, across the street, you have Basquiat doing what he is doing, and it's the opposite: It's naming, materiality. Which path do you take? I took the path of emptiness, of non-naming.
