How about the museum in the forest?

​

This novel question was a beginning of the Guggenheim Helsinki. Many museums are in the city because of the rich cultural life of there. However, art is born of the observation and investigation of nature, most people have no chance to be inspired nature like artists. Sometimes, we can find the museum with a well-kept garden. But it's an artificial nature. The garden is made very well, but it can't compare with nature.

​

We can feel the inspiration when commune with nature. This is a key issue of the future museum. A new function of the future museum will be transmitting and sharing an artist's inspiration or a sensitivity.
