Comment

The Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, designed by the American architect Frank O. Gehry, was inaugurated in 1997. Its spectacular structure, made of stone, glass and titanium, presents a sculptural image that integrates perfectly into the landscape and the estuary of Bilbao. The collection of the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao is made up of works of modern and contemporary art, which are exhibited from different perspectives, with the aim that the public that visits it can enjoy the art and the values that it represents. The Guggenheim Museum Bilbao is part of the Guggenheim Network of institutions, which also includes the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York, the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice and the Deutsche Guggenheim in Berlin.

Interesting fact

The Bilbao 5 Euro silver coin from Spain, minted in 2011, features a unique design that showcases the city's iconic Guggenheim Museum, designed by Frank Gehry. This coin is a non-circulating coin, meaning it was not intended for general circulation and was instead produced in limited quantities for collectors. The coin's design is particularly interesting because it highlights the city's cultural and artistic significance, and the use of silver gives it an added touch of elegance.
