New Building, Tel Aviv Museum of Art (TAMA) and other Forms
We cordially invite you to our second exhibition with Preston Scott
Cohen. The show will feature digital renderings of his winning
international competition project for the New Building, Tel Aviv
Museum of Art (TAMA), and stereo lithographed 3D objects of geometric
anomalies that Cohen later transforms into architecture.

Architecture" (Princeton Architectural Press, 2001), is the Gerald
McCue Professor of Architecture at Harvard Design School and holds

and Goodman Houses, and short list proposals for the Temporary Museum
of Modern Art and the Eyebeam Atelier, Museum of Art and Technology,
both in New York.
His work and research has been published and exhibited widely
internationally and is in the collections of several museums
including the Museum of Modern Art, the San Francisco Museum of
