About the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum
Designed by visionary American architect Frank Lloyd Wright, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum opened its doors in 1959. The Guggenheim is home to one of the world’s finest collections of modern and contemporary art—and is itself a masterpiece. Ascend the landmark building’s grand spiral that rises toward the central dome and experience the museum’s special exhibitions, which feature celebrated works from the nineteenth century through the present and form an “uninterrupted, beautiful symphony” of art and architecture, just as Wright intended.
