THE GUGGENHEIM
BILBAOBILBAO, SPAIN
Who doesn’t love a
puppy?
Why not stop and smell
the flowers?
Is it okay to go in
circles?
What can art do?
In the case of the
Guggenheim, art revitalized
a city!
This museum was built as
part of the revitalization
effort for the Spanish city of
Bilbao.
The museum received 4
million visitors in the first 3
years.
This generated enough
taxes to pay for the cost of
the structure…
…which was finished on
time AND on budget!
THAT’S AMAZING!
“An astonishing
architectural feat”
– The Independent
“The greatest
building of our
time”
– Philip Johnson
The Builder?
The
Architect?
The Vertical
Transportation
Consultant?
Guess!
