Fundacio de Serralves
Porto, Portugal
Alvaro Siza Viera, Architect, 1991-1999

I really liked the entry sequence, but I really didn't like the sign where it was, as I feel that it ruins the composition. It looks more like a construction sign than an announcement of various exhibitions. That, and the spacing between the events is not consistent.

The glow behind the ticket-house is produced by the wall of the auditorium (on the left), acting like a huge lampshade during the course of the day and reflecting light back under the walkway.

This shows what creates that great glow in the previous image.

Here are some fellow visitors (still standing) to show some scale.

I'm just going to hang around the entry for a bit before going inside.

I don't seem to be getting more than 10 meters or so between shots.....this could take until the end of the year.
