Finally, we have Pei’s first museum, the Everson Museum of Art, located in Syracuse, New York. Pei really changed the game with this piece: This is one point in history where many believe that architects began to transition from the idea that a museum should simply be a vessel for art to the idea that the museum itself should be art. The Museum’s website says that Pei “rejected the traditional notion that a museum needed to be a monumental container for art and decided it ought to be a sculptural work of art in itself.” the museum itself had been moving from building to building for years, until Everson’s generous gift allowed commissioned Pei to create this work of art which was unveiled in 1968.
