“Our design reimagines the Arkansas Arts Center to unlock new connections between an extraordinary art collection, thriving Museum School and Children’s Theatre. Along with much-needed renovations, new daylit spaces linked through the core of the Center will facilitate movement and create a series of vibrant, new public spaces for social interaction, education and appreciation for the arts. Opening onto Crescent Drive and MacArthur Park, the new architecture will strength the relationship between the Arkansas Arts Center and the community.”

'Recognizing that people are beginning to understand that simply destroying and replacing Brutalist buildings is wasteful and environmentally harmful, they wanted, Gang says, “to wake our collective brain to the situation,” and “to become creative with something that is already there.”'

“Jeanne has a history with Lexington and the College, and Studio Gang has been an integral part of our important work in the Portland neighborhood of Louisville,” said University of Kentucky College of Design Dean Mitzi Vernon. “With her broad portfolio of work, she understands community engagement, adaptive reuse, and as we look at the Reynolds Building, we consider the district and Lexington’s University City status, anticipating the critical role Jeanne will play in that evolution."

Jeanne Gang named among 100 most influential people of 2019 by TIME Magazine.

“For Jeanne, architecture is not just a wondrous object. It’s a catalyst for change. Her sleek, woody boathouses are helping to revive the polluted Chicago River by filtering runoff organically.

"Last summer, Jeanne Gang revealed she had closed the pay gap at Studio Gang, becoming the first firm in the country to do so. As Gang pointed out...the pay gap is one of architecture’s greatest injustices and diversity in design isn’t just about filling a quota with different faces of different colors in a single office. It’s about recognizing the value that architects of all backgrounds bring to the table, and compensating them appropriately."

The University of Kentucky College of Design announced Studio Gang as one of six finalists in consideration for National Design Architect for the adaptive reuse of the Reynolds Building.

"We’re creating something that’s worthy of a 200-year-old city growing to embrace inclusivity, ambition, equality and change.

Tom Lee did a noble deed. Let’s do another one by giving generations of Memphians a world-class riverfront park that can enrich them every single day."

In a new series for the French architecture publication, Jeanne shares a selection of her favorite books.

"All of these hundreds of cobblestones that came from Memphis, then to Venice, now here to Chicago, are weighted. They’re weighted with history ... it’s about bringing sort of a renewed interest into this material object."

“If we keep environmental impact in mind from the start of the design process, we can create buildings that are functional and aesthetically pleasing, and also bird-friendly,” says Jeanne.

"Along six miles of the Mississippi River in Memphis, Tennessee, Studio Gang and SCAPE have designed Tom Lee Park with architectural interventions, multi-purpose spaces, landscape, and playplaces."

"Studio Gang has revealed plans to overhaul a park on Memphis' Mississippi River, which include building a plant-covered viewing tower, bulbous stoney structures, and a gridded canopy for basketball."
