New York City GuggenheimThe Guggenheim is one of the best known museums in NYC. and is home to a renowned permanent collection of Impressionist, Post-Impressionist, early Modern, and contemporary art, and also features special exhibitions throughout the year. It was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright.
I visited this museum in New York as it was a building I studied in first year Landscape architecture, in the history lectures. The building has history and is a strong landmark in NYC.
This was Wright's last major work, from the street, the building looks like a white ribbon curled into a cylindrical stack, wider at the top than at the bottom. Its exterior is in distintive contrast to the more typically boxy, tall Manhattan buildings that surround it.
