Kimbell Art Museum Pavilion, Art museum in Fort Worth, Texas, United States.
The Kimbell Art Museum Pavilion is an art museum in Fort Worth, Texas, known for its elegant architecture featuring concrete walls and expansive windows. Natural light flows through the galleries, creating an ideal setting for viewing the collection of artworks.
The museum was founded in 1972 by renowned architect Louis Kahn and received a major expansion in 2013 with a new building designed by Renzo Piano. This addition continued the architectural vision while significantly expanding the institution's capacity.
The collection brings together artworks from multiple cultures and periods, displayed in conversation within the same contemporary spaces. Visitors experience how different artistic traditions interact and inform one another across the galleries.

The building features 16 parallel vaults with specially designed skylights that filter daylight to protect artworks while enhancing their display. This system is a rarely seen architectural solution that transformed how the collection is experienced.
