The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, most often referred to as The Guggenheim, is located on the Upper East Side of Manhattan in New York City. It is the permanent home of a continuously expanding collection of Impressionist, Post-Impressionist, early Modern and contemporary art and also features special exhibitions throughout the year. The museum was established by the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation in 1939. It adopted its current name after the death of its founder, Solomon R. Guggenheim, in 1952.
Designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, the cylindrical museum building, wider at the top than the bottom, was conceived as a "temple of the spirit" and is one of the 20th century's most important architectural landmarks. The building opened on October 21, 1959. Its unique ramp gallery extends from just under the skylight in the ceiling in a long, continuous spiral along the outer edges of the building until it reaches the ground level. The building underwent extensive expansion and renovations in 1992 (when an adjoining tower was built) and from 2005 to 2008.

Es la primera imagen típica y tópica del Guggenheim que cuelgo en Flickr. Claro que, con esa luz, a ver quien es el guapo que se resiste a caer en tópicos.

The Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation selected Frank Gehry as the architect for the Guggenheim. They encouraged him to design something daring and innovative.The curves on the exterior of the building were intended to appear random; the architect said that "the randomness of the curves are designed to catch the light". The interior is designed around a large, light-filled atrium with views of Bilbao's estuary and the surrounding hills of the Basque country. The atrium, which Gehry nicknamed The Flower because of its shape, serves as the organizing center of the museum.
It has been described as "a fantastic dream ship of undulating form in a cloak of titanium" its brilliantly reflective panels also reminiscent of fish scales.

Deutsch:
Das Guggenheim-Museum Bilbao ist ein Kunstmuseum für Moderne Kunst in Bilbao im spanischen Baskenland. Es hat eine Ausstellungsfläche von 11.000 m² und zeigt sowohl eine Dauerausstellung sowie externe Wanderausstellungen. Das Museum ist eines von fünf Guggenheim-Museen der US-amerikanischen Stiftung Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation.
Das einem Oval ähnliche Gebäude befindet sich an der Ria des Flusses Nervión in der Innenstadt Bilbaos. Architekt ist der kanadisch-US-amerikanische Architekt und Designer Frank Gehry. Das 1997 fertiggestellte, sehr skurrile Gebäude ist für seinen dekonstruktivistischen Baustil berühmt. Das Guggenheim-Museum ist eine der bedeutendsten Sehenswürdigkeiten der Stadt.
Schwerpunkt ist die zeitgenössische Kunst des 20. Jahrhunderts, die auch Teil der Dauerausstellung ist. Objekte sind weniger Malereien und Skulpturen als Installationen, Videokunst und ähnliches.
Das Museum ist neben der zweifellos großen kulturellen Bereicherung für Bilbao und die ganze Region Nordspanien auch ein wirtschaftlicher Erfolg, der mehrere tausend Arbeitsplätze geschaffen hat. Nach dieser Aufwertung der Stadt wurde der Bilbao-Effekt benannt.
