Da alcune settimana il Blanton Museum di Austin, parte dell'Università del Texas, ha realizzato un edificio pensato da Ellsworth Kelly 1986.
Si tratta di un edificio con declinazione spirituale che ha una forma a croce con delle finestre dai vivaci colori.

In January 2015, the renowned American artist Ellsworth Kelly gifted to the Blanton the design concept for his most monumental work, a 2,715-square-foot stone building with luminous colored glass windows, a totemic wood sculpture, and fourteen black and white marble panels. Titled Austin, honoring the artist’s tradition of naming particular works for the places for which they are destined, the structure is the only building the artist designed, and will be his most lasting legacy. Envisioned by Kelly as a site for joy and contemplation, Austin is a cornerstone of the Blanton’s permanent collection and will enrich the lives of visitors from around the world.
