Bilbao - The Guggenheim Museum and La Salve Bridge
Guggenheim Museum and La Salve Bridge - Bilbao, Spain.
I guess no trip to Bilbao would be complete without a take-home shot of this architectural wonder. I've seen Frank Gehry's work in Dusseldorf and in Prague, and this I can also add to my collection. The nice thing about the materials that Gehry uses for his designs - mostly titanium steel - is that they are very receptive to light and reflects the colors surrounding it. The building basically looks different in color during different times of the day.
One of the most admired works of contemporary architecture, the Guggenheim has been hailed as a "single moment in the architectural culture" because it represents "one of those rare moments when critics, academics, and the general public were all completely united about something. The museum was named as one of the most important works completed since 1980 in the 2010 World Architecture Survey among architecture experts.
