The Auckland Art Gallery had a major re-vamp and the result is just stunning. It has a great collection of contemporary New Zealand Art. the picture above shows the older part of the gallery (which originally housed the Public Library)
This is a view of the new entrance.

I must say I favor the old section's architecture. Great shots of both! Thanks for sharing!
