The Milwaukee Museum of Art, a world renown museum, is just as much a work of art on the outside as it is on the inside.
This bird-like structure was designed by Santiago Calatrava and at noon each day crowds gather outside to watch the retractable wings open and close. You can view the opening and closing of the wings from the Lakefront, but the best view is halfway down on the bridge on the downtown side. Although, when I look at the structure, I don't see a bird, I see instead a great ship with sails heading into Lake Michigan.
The building is architecturally stunning on the inside! This is the view from the inside of the main lobby, with beautiful marble floors throughout, looking towards the sweeping and breathtaking Lake Michigan. This is a great place to take in all the splendors that the lake has to offer!
