Brutalism Magnet – Hirshhorn Museum
Amid the Cold War, urban renewal efforts ushered in a “Brutalist” phenomenon that reshaped the nation’s capital in the mid-20th century.  Many high-profile public buildings were designed and constructed with exposed structural elements and building materials, including concrete, brick, steel, and glass.  They were viewed as cost-effective and efficient, but many haven’t aged well, and public reaction continues to debate their architectural significance.  This magnet, measuring 2 ⅛ x 3 ⅛ inches features an image of the Hirshhorn Museum by architectural photographer Ty Cole.
The Hirshhorn is a leading voice for contemporary art and culture and provides a global platform for the art and artists of our time. Located in the heart of Washington, DC, on the National Mall.
