ARCHITECT: MARIO J CIAMPI (1970)

The Berkley Art Museum & Pacific Film Archive features some nice concrete details.
There is little better than massive concrete to give a sense of permanence and protection for valuable art and film.
This museum was criticized for drawing more attention than the art... solution, get better art.
Judging by today's abundance of dynamic art museums, this is no longer a problem but more an asset for drawing clientele.
