Pardo has completely transformed Dia's 9,000 square-foot first floor in a complex, multifaceted project that includes redesigning the lobby, creating a new bookshop, and staging an exhibition in the reconfigured gallery. Dia's bookshop, with an independent entrance and expanded opening hours, focuses on postwar and contemporary art and culture, theory, history, and poetry, as well as video work courtesy of Electronic Arts Intermix.

Jorge Pardo was born in Havana in 1963. He lives and works in Los Angeles.
