Glass and stone museum puts
a modern spin on Savannah
By Russ Bynum
Associated Press
SAVANNAH - Hired to design
an annex to the Souths oldest public
art museum, architect Moshe Safdie
envisioned a marriage of contempo-
rary style and antebellum grandeur
— a 21st-century twist on Scarlett
O'Hara's Tara.
The $24.5 million Jepson Center
for the Arts, which opens Friday, is a
shockingly modern addition to both
the historic downtown of Georgia's
oldest city as well as the annex's 138-
year-old sister museum.
Across Telfair Square from the
white-columned English Regency
mansion that's housed the Telfair
Museum of Art since 1868, the new
annex faces oak trees andparkbenches
with a three-story facade of transpar-
ent glass.
Passers-by on the street get a clear
view inside of the sweeping atrium
with white walls of Portuguese lime-
stone and the curving grand staircase
that ascends through its center to the
main galleries.
Not everybody in Savannah saw
Safdie's design as romantic, nor did
they celebrate, when the Telfair Mu-
seum pitched his 64,000-square-foot
annex to city leaders in 1999.

Orem, Utah.
The head of the seven foot tall

with a sledge hammer, then stolen.
The statue was hand carved in Italy

says people often sit at the foot of the
statue seeking a moment ofpeace, "It's
a sad thing to see a piece of art ruined
just for no reason at all."
The statue is valued at between
$20,000 to $40,000.
Cemetery owners are offering a
$1,000 reward for any information
leading to the arrest and conviction
of the vandals.
