Bilbao Guggenheim Museum, Spain (Video clip)
The Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, in Spain, was built in 1997 by Frank Gehry, a Pritzker Prize winning Canadian/American Architect.



Mr. Gehry is well known for his modern architecture, much of which seems to defy logic with its curves and bends. Unlike many architects, he completed construction of the museum on time and within the original budget.

The curvatures of the museum were created using a combination of titanium, limestone and glass. The artwork protected from heat damage by the glass curtain walls that were built throughout the structure. The entire museum took three years to complete; it was started in October of 1994, and was first open to the public on October 19, 1997.
