In 1996, the Museum of Contemporary Art, San Diego reopened its La Jolla facility after an expansion and renovation designed by well-known architect Robert Venturi, and his firm, Venturi, Scott Brown and Associates. This book documents this monumental design with full color photographs, and is the first to examine the nearly 100-year history of the museum's site. It also features interviews with the architect by the museum's curator.
