Forum 64: Cecil Balmond opens  
10:00 AM

Forum Gallery. Cecil Balmond has transformed the role of the engineer in contemporary architecture with his unorthodox and visionary approach that challenges staid definitions of architecture and engineering. Forum 64 features his work H_edge, which consists of approximately 6,000 aluminum plates suspended between rigid stainless steel chains. What appears to hang like metallic ivy is revealed on closer inspection to stand from the floor. This “trick” allows for H_edge segments to turn at will and create a mazelike structure that is surprisingly sturdy. Interstitial gaps offer intriguing glimpses through a structure further animated by light and reflections. H_edge is supplemented by a suite of lightboxes that illustrate the principles used by Balmond to structure many of today's most innovative buildings.

Past Meets Present: Decorative Arts and Design opens  
10:00 AM

Ailsa Mellon Bruce Galleries. The newly renovated Ailsa Mellon Bruce Galleries provide a universal perspective on American and European decorative arts from the Rococo and Neoclassical periods of the 18th century to contemporary design and craft of the 20th and 21st centuries. In this special inaugural exhibition, the past, present, and future of decorative arts and design at the museum is explored through three key installations. A display of significant early acquisitions includes 18th-century French furniture and sumptuous German porcelain owned by the famous collector and patron Ailsa Mellon Bruce; an important group of early Pennsylvania decorative arts reflects the museum's commitment to the arts of our region; and a stunning installation of chairs offers a unique view of the evolution of style and design into the 21st century.
