The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, also known as 'The Guggenheim', is a world-renowned institution that needs no introduction. The futuristic beehive designed by Frank Lloyd Wright is an architectural landmark that houses an impressive collection of modern art from the 20th century and beyond. With your entrance ticket, you'll gain access to the permanent collection that includes famous works by iconic artists such as Manet, Degas, Picasso, Cézanne, Gauguin, and Kandinsky. Additionally, your ticket grants you entry to any temporary exhibitions, which have in the past included presentations and thematic explorations dedicated to the likes of Kandinsky, Pollock, Mapplethorpe, and more. The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum was conceived by master architect Frank Lloyd Wright in 1943 and opened to the public in 1959, changing the world of modern art forever. The museum's design is still cutting-edge, with its gracefully spiraling ramp leading up to a spectacular domed-glass ceiling. The museum's exhibitions are frequently updated, showcasing a wide range of works from both exciting new artists and cultural heavyweights. A visit to the Guggenheim is a must-see for lovers of art and architecture, as well as those looking to recreate that iconic bit from the start of Men in Black. Note! Don't forget an ID for reduced tickets.
