红砖美术馆地处北京市朝阳区东北部一号地国际艺术区，园区占地面积约二万平方米，展馆面积近一万平方米，由收藏家闫士杰和曹梅夫妇创立，于2012年年底开馆试运营。美术馆建筑及园林设计统一由北京大学建筑研究中心教授董豫赣担纲，采用红色砖块作为基本建筑元素，努力在建造砌筑过程中不切割、尽量保证每一块砖体的完整性从而构成了独特的建筑语言，打造出一座于生长于喧嚣之外、怀拥自然的园林式当代美术馆。红砖美术馆主体建筑分为地上两层及局部地下一层，其中包括9个展览空间、2个公共休闲空间、1个艺术衍生品空间。作为红砖美术馆与其他美术馆在建筑构成上的最大不同——一座采用中国传统园林意象精心打造的现代园林，构成了参观体验和建筑结构上的双重延伸，而美术馆的学术报告厅、餐厅、咖啡厅和会员俱乐部等配套设施也正散落于此。未来，红砖美术馆将通过有序且高质量的系列展览，结合收藏、研究、教育、出版和公共活动，推动中国当代艺术的发展、参与国际当代艺术家（项目）交流，展开学术领域突出问题和现象研究，为中国当代民营美术馆的运营及发展模式，提供可行性参考。Red Brick Art Museum is located in No.1 International Art District in the northeast of Beijing.
