Tickets for The Guggenheim: Skip The Line
New York's premier gallery is famed for its world-class modern art collection
- Lose yourself in this palace of modern art, with a world-leading collection and regular exhibitions from major international artists
- Designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, the building is a work of art itself, with a spiraling interior ramp reportedly inspired by the concave lines of a seashell
- The Guggenheim's ongoing exhibition of Impressionist, Post-Impressionist, and modern French masterpieces, with works by Cézanne, Picasso, Kandinsky, Monet, and more, is unmissable
Witness the bold, colorful works of Stockholm-born Hilma af Klint, who started creating radically abstract paintings in 1906. See how and why they became popular across Europe and the United States, where literary and artistic circles were inspired by the artist's capabilities to reconcile long-held religious beliefs with scientific advances and a new awareness of the global plurality of religions.
This exhibition explores over 200 iconic photographs from the celebrated American photographer Robert Mapplethorpe. Featuring an array of works from the Guggenheim's extensive collection, including early Polaroids, collages, and mixed-media constructions, the exhibition spans Mapplethorpe's eclectic spectrum of subjects and themes.
Topics covered include male and female nudes, floral still lifes, portraits of artists, celebrities, and acquaintances, and searingly honest self-portraits. It also features some pretty explicit depictions of New York's underground S&M scene, so it's not for people of all ages!
The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum (usually shortened to 'The Guggenheim') scarcely needs any introduction. Frank Lloyd Wright's futuristic beehive is an architectural landmark, and the interior houses a world-renowned collection of modern art, celebrating the 20th century and beyond.
Conceived in 1943 by master architect Frank Lloyd Wright, The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum opened to the public in 1959 and changed the world of modern art. Its design is still as cutting-edge as it was in the 50s, with its gracefully spiraling ramp reaching gently into the spectacular domed-glass ceiling.
Frequently updated exhibitions show off a wide range of works from exciting new artists and cultural heavyweights. With free guided tours, downloadable audio guides and interactive augmented reality mobile apps, it's an appropriately contemporary experience – a must-see for lovers of art and architecture, and those looking to recreate that bit at the start of Men in Black.
