- “I don’t think there are many people I have met who don’t feel that the Frick does something very special for them. And it’s always done that for me.”
In this exclusive interview, architect Annabelle Selldorf reflects on her approach to designing the Frick’s renovation, carried out in collaboration with executive architect Beyer Blinder Belle. Joining a storied tradition of transformation at the Frick mansion, the latest interventions aim to honor our buildings’ history while meeting the needs of a twenty-first-century institution. To exemplify her ethos, Selldorf gives viewers a preview of the new Stephen A. Schwarzman Auditorium, which features an intimate curvilinear design and state-of-the-art acoustics by Arup. The beautiful space will host music, lectures, performances, and other engaging programs that-like the entire renovation itself-will foster a deeper, renewed connection to the Frick and its collections.

Loved visiting the Frick.
The Frick changed my relationship to portraiture. I saw a painting of a man and didn't pay much attention. But, the slide show later, showed the stubble on his chin, and I realized I just had not really LOOKED at the painting. So, I went back and appreciated a portrait for the first. It's been a bit life-changing. DA
This new space looks really cool, elegant and timeless. Hope to see some good music programming.
Brilliant in theory--a disaster in design. Looks cheap and doesn't compliment the magnificient Frick majesty. It reminds me of places i've visited in Scandanavia (aka--Ikea looking). If the master achitects and Henry Frick were come back to life and see this--they would never stop throwing up. Great idea and much needed however--just HORRIBLE design.
Agreed!
TikTok DIY caliber design. 🫣👎
The proscenium is perfectly dreadful.
This couch potato 😅
