Drive along North Riverside Drive on the University of Iowa campus and you're sure to notice the progress being made on the future home of the UI School of Art and Art History's numerous studio arts disciplines. Iowa Now provides you with intimate glimpses of the work done over the past few months.

The new facility, which will be situated adjacent to and northwest of Art Building West, will contain 126,000 square feet of loft-like space for the studio arts departments. To hear Steven Holl Architects describe it, “While Art Building West is horizontally porous and of planar composition, the new building will be vertically porous and volumetrically composed.”
