Description
The National Museum of African American History and Culture is a Smithsonian Institution museum established in 2003. The museum's building is currently under construction on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., and is scheduled to open in 2016.
This black and white photo shows the detail of the exterior of the building, which is surrounded by a thin screen or "scrim" perforated by geometrical patterns based on historic iron grilles found in African American communities in Charleston, South Carolina, and New Orleans, Louisiana.
