The last extension was designed by Belgian architecture office Robbrecht en Daem in 2002. They provided the museum with a series of smaller scale gallery spaces that enveloped Bodon’s exhibition hall. In doing so, they reinforce the interpretation of Bodon’s exhibition hall as an interior courtyard. Large windows along the street connect the galleries to the city and make the art visible from the street. Furthermore, the architects shifted the entrance of the museum to the central courtyard of the ensemble and transformed the courtyard into a public space with big works of art.
