INTRODUCTION
Completed in 2007, the New Museum designed by SANAA has an almost haunting presence on the skyline where it goes up to 53 meters (174 feet) above its neighbors, and with only one facade entirely facing the Bowery, a pivotal geographic and cultural intersection where generations of artists have lived, work ed, and contributed to the ongoing cultural dialogue of the nation. At first sight, the white tall building seemed a little odd to its surroundings. But if you pay a visit throughout the museum, things become different, you will get the sense that SANAA is trying their best to utilize the surrounding beneficial elements of the site and build a connection between inside and outside.

FACADE ANALYSIS
The museum's most unique characteristic is its surface —— corrugated-aluminum panels painted silverly gray, with an aluminum mesh suspended an inch and a half in front of them. “We moved away from a flat surface and explored ways of getting a rough, blurry effect,” says Oki. The aluminum mesh creates dynamic visual connection between inside and outside . And it changes with the city. The highly polished aluminum mesh reflects sunlight perfectly while also distorting it. As the sun changes throughout the day, the building changes from orange in the morning, white during the day and red at dusk.
Looking far away from the outside , the New Museum is a vertical building composed of several white shifting boxes. The metal mesh used in its facade appears to be white and shining, especially in sunny days . When getting closer to the museum , people can see the reflection and the transparency of the mesh , but still can’t see interior space clearly. However, when standing inside the museum and looking out of the metal mesh , things become different, one can see the street view outside the mesh semi-clearly. And also , the interlaced pattern of the mesh emerges a dynamic ripple effect on solid-wall facade by means of light and shadow.

Intention! Sometimes architecture looks as if it's eternal because it won't move. But Sometimes it doesn't because in different time and from different distance, it will be quite different. But still, there's something that doesn't change in architecture. What I want to do is to play back and forth with time and distance, trying to capture the changing and unchanging moments of architecture and its surroundings. In this way, I might approach the theme "paradoxical eternal" in my architecture photography. To achieve that, I'm trying to take picture at places where there are both natural landscape and urban landscape in different time,from autumn to winter, from dawn to twilight, etc.The more times I visit the same place, the more connected I feel with the site. Architecture is like a person sometimes, who has different mood and appearance in different circumstances. To know the person well, one should make observation of him of her in different occasions. Till Now, the edge of Manhattan is my favorite territory, where it combines natural landscape and urban landscape. Manhattan is a modern city sitting on the water, which is quite unique for its case. I intend to visit it multiple times in the future. In winter, maybe the sea will be frozen and there will be snow all around. Then I'd like to talk about distance. When taking pictures of architecture in different distance, the foreground of the photo may be different. The diversity of layers or elements in a photograph, which affects the atmosphere of a photo, is quite interesting to me. I’m trying to show the geometrical element in I have the tendency or preference to take photos organized in a sequence of movement. A single image holds both a reality that can be seen and images that cannot be seen. Sometimes it can predict what will happen at next moment, sometimes it cannot. What I'm trying to do is to explore the most about the atmosphere of architecture that is visible and invisible, eternal and dynamic. Some scenario may be easy to be ignored, I want to reveal them as much as I can. In my previous works I’d like to divide them into several series.
