If not even for the exhibits, at least go simply for the architectural design of the building.

Limited amount of art. That was way back in 2003, though!

A review of this place: Amazing.

Easily one of the top museums in Europe, if you are an off-the-beaten path person. Granted, this is ON the beaten path, but not compared to the Louvre, Tate, etc. Be prepared for some amazing visiting exhibitions. And, best of all, even if you don’t like them, the building itself and all the angles you can view it from are worth the trip. Plus I love Bilbao.

Even though Frank Gehry gets a bad rap sometimes for being just another arrogant architect who’s buildings all look the same and who has no concern for the people and things that inhabit his space, I loved my visit here. The crazy angles and curves did not take away from the art inside, but added to it, giving a whole new dimension to the modern art experience. I also loved all the mobiles, they mesmerized me, I could have sat and watched them for hours. Also, go for a packed lunch with a nutella sandwich (the European substitute for peanut butter). It’s a Spanish fav, and quite delish.

Why I want to go to this place

The Guggenheim is on my list of Top Expressionist Modern Feats of Architecture to see before I die. Thankfully one of my awesome girlfriends is going to accompany me on a trip to see it in Spring of 08.

I’m thrilled beyond belief!
