<br/><br/> This is a history of museum architecture in the last decade of the twentieth century, presented with sketches, drawings, models and descriptions. The aim is for the important tendancies in contemporary architecture to be compared by using their most original and radical forms. A few of the buildings illustrated are: the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art by Marie Botta, the Jewish Museum in Berlin by Daniel Libeskind, the Moderna Museet in Stockholm by Rafael Moneo and the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao by Frank O. Gehry
