Daily News | The original Barnes Foundation building is re-opening its doors as part of St. Joe’s
This weekend, the historic building that once held the Barnes Foundation collection will reopen to the public, now as the Frances M. Maguire Art Museum.
The renovated 15-gallery space in Lower Merion displays the university’s art collection of some 2,500 artworks spanning 3,000 years. The museum will also host rotating exhibits, classes, performances, and more. Another challenge was procuring the same limestone used in the original building to add to the exterior, which Unkefer and his team tracked down in France. “It was the last stones from the quarry that were originally used for the building,” he said.
