Ma Yansong of MAD Architects is opening Fenix, an innovative museum in Rotterdam focused on the theme of migration. Located on the historic port where many emigrants once departed for America, including Albert Einstein, Fenix transforms a former warehouse into an art space. The museum features exhibitions that highlight the personal narratives behind migration amidst current political challenges. Yansong emphasizes the importance of movement in his architectural design, serving not just as an art space but as a symbol and reflection of migratory experiences.
"Fenix is likely the first art museum in the world dedicated to the politically loaded theme of migration."
"It's not about numbers; it’s about understanding the personal stories that connect us all on the journey of migration."
