NEW WING OF THE VAN GOGH MUSEUM


The new wing of the Van Gogh Museum is located in the Museumplein of Amsterdam, the Netherlands. The new wing is an extension of the Rijksmuseum Vincent Van Gogh, the National Museum.
The building is defined by it's striking crescent shaped structure, combined with a complimentary semi-circular sunken courtyard (inspired by a Japanese water garden). The main space is used as an exhibition hall, with a smaller square exhibition hall featuring Japanese Ukiyoe.
