This October, the Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute’s Museum of Art (MWPAI) in Utica, New York, will celebrate the 50th anniversary of its Philip Johnson-designed home with an exhibition commemorating the work of the illustrious Modernist and Postmodernist architect.
Johnson’s design for the museum — a three-story, 60,000-square-foot box sheathed in dark granite — is credited for introducing Modern architecture to Utica, a quiet town in upstate New York. Located along the Erie Canal, Utica was at the center of American industry when the institute was founded in 1919.
