Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum Entry Tickets Overview

The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum is two experiences in one: a UNESCO World Heritage building and one of the great collections of modern and contemporary art in the world. Frank Lloyd Wright's spiralling concrete structure opened in 1959 after 16 years of design and construction and immediately changed what people thought a museum could be. The building widens continuously as it rises, inspired by the interior of a nautilus shell, and a central skylight dome floods natural light down the entire height of the interior.

The experience is unlike any other museum. Visitors take the elevator to the top floor and descend a single continuous ramp curving around the open rotunda. Works open off the ramp with art visible both up close and across the full height of the building. The architecture and collection are inseparable in a way that is genuinely unique in museum design.

The permanent collection holds approximately 8000 works with particular strength in German Expressionism, Abstraction and Surrealism. Kandinsky's early abstract paintings are among the finest in any collection, alongside works by Picasso, Chagall, Klee, Calder, Mondrian and Miro. Special exhibitions have positioned the Guggenheim as one of the most ambitious curatorial institutions in the world. Every Tuesday and Sunday from 4 to 5:30 pm admission is pay-what-you-wish.
