Michael Maltzan : Alternate GroundMichael Maltzan is recognized as an architect of contemporary residences, including notable houses in Beverly Hills and Malibu, educational complexes, and buildings for art. Since 1995, his innovative architectural firm, Michael Maltzan Architecture, has earned such major commissions as MoMA QNS, New York, Kidspace Children's Museum, Pasadena, the Sonoma County Museum, and the Fresno Metropolitan Museum. Maltzan is also at work on two international projects: Ministructure 16, a park pavilion in Jinhua, China, and the redesign of urban space near the Garibaldi railway station in Milan, Italy.
The exhibition Michael Maltzan: Alternate Ground presents sixteen projects that collectively demonstrate Maltzan's design strategies: the grafting of new and old, sensitivity to topography, the prioritization of natural light, and the pleasure of promenade. The exhibition includes 200 models documenting the firm's design process. Like Maltzan's buildings, the exhibition invites circulation and exploration.
Michael Maltzan Architecture was commissioned to design the 2004-5 Carnegie International, on view at the museum through March 20.
Generous support for the exhibition catalogue Michael Maltzan: Alternate Ground has been provided by Elise Jaffe + Jeffrey Brown. The exhibition and its programs are supported by The Overbrook Founda
