Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum / New York
FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT • ESTABLISHED IN 1939 • BUILT IN 1959
An internationally renowned art museum and one of the most significant architectural icons of the 20th century, the Guggenheim Museum in New York is at once a vital cultural center, an educational institution, and the heart of an international network of museums. Visitors can experience special exhibitions of modern and contemporary art, lectures by artists and critics, performances and film screenings, classes for teens and adults, and daily tours of the galleries led by museum educators. Founded on a collection of early modern masterpieces, the Guggenheim Museum today is an ever-evolving institution devoted to the art of the 20th century and beyond.
Peggy Guggenheim Collection / Venice
LORENZO BOSCHETTI • ESTABLISHED IN 1951 • BUILT CA. 1748
Located on Venice’s Grand Canal between Santa Maria della Salute and the Gallerie dell’Accademia, the Peggy Guggenheim Collection is one of Europe’s premier museums devoted to modern art and is the second most frequently visited museum in Venice. At the core of the museum’s holdings is Peggy Guggenheim’s personal collection of 20th-century art comprised of masterpieces ranging in style from Cubism and Surrealism to Abstract Expressionism. The Peggy Guggenheim Collection also exhibits other works owned by the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation, presents temporary exhibitions, and manages and operates the U.S. Pavilion of the Venice Biennale.
Guggenheim Museum / Bilbao
FRANK GEHRY • ESTABLISHED IN 1991 • BUILT IN 1997
When it opened in 1997, the Frank Gehry – designed Guggenheim Museum Bilbao – a spectacular structure made of titanium, glass, and limestone – was hailed as the most important building of its time. Located in the Basque city of Bilbao in northern Spain, the museum features exhibitions organized by the Guggenheim Foundation and by the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, as well as selections from the permanent collection of the Guggenheim museums.
Guggenheim / Abu Dhabi
FRANK GEHRY • CURRENTLY IN DEVELOPMENT
The Guggenheim Abu Dhabi will be a preeminent platform for contemporary art and culture that presents the most important artistic achievements of our time. From its location in the Middle East – a central axis between Europe, Asia, and Africa – the Guggenheim Abu Dhabi will contribute to a more inclusive and expansive view of art history that emphasizes the convergence of local, regional, and international sources of creative inspiration rather than geography or nationality. At the same time, the Guggenheim Abu Dhabi will acknowledge and celebrate the specific identity derived from the cultural traditions of Abu Dhabi and the United Arab Emirates, as well as other countries in the Middle East.

Entitled A Shimmer Through The Quantum Foam, the exhibition features a series of unique animated pod sculptures that pulse and undulate, casting their flickering light across the surfaces of luminous algorithmically-generated paintings.
