The museum’s casual, ground-level Best Café will serve coffee and pastries as well as hot dishes, soups, sandwiches, pizzas and salads. The name honors the former Best Products company founded by VMFA benefactors Sydney and Frances Lewis. (Photo by Travis Fullerton, © Virginia Museum of Fine Arts)
“Art History is Not Linear (VMFA),” a Ryan McGinness painting commissioned by the museum, is the first work of art visitors see when they enter the museum’s main entrance. The full work is 8 by 32 feet.
A dramatic glass wall signals VMFA’s mission by showcasing works of art and revealing public activity inside. The insulated-glass wall on the east façade is 40 feet high and 72 feet wide and covers 2,880 square feet.
