Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum

The Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum on the campus of Michigan State University. Completed in 2012 (grand opening November 10).

It was designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Zaha Hadid.

While I like the unique shape, stainless steel and glass walls, its avant-garde design seems out of place sitting in the mix of old school, gothic inspired architecture that dominates the rest of the campus.

The entrance, on the south side of Grand River Avenue, accentuates the angular stainless and glass structure.  The building could be a model for a mechanical steel dragon in a new release of the movie "Transformers."

Pictured to the right is part of the current exhibit titled "Pattern: Follow the Rules," which will be displayed until August 11, 2013.
