Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum
Widely regarded as an exceptional icon of the 20
th
century,
the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum launched
the great age of museum architecture and proved that
a collection’s physical home could be as crucial a part
of the museum experience as the work itself.

The Story of an Iconic Building
[ “An idea is salvation
by imagination” ]
Frank Lloyd Wright
In June 1943, Frank Lloyd Wright was asked by Hilla Rebay,
the art advisor to Solomon R. Guggenheim, to design
a new building to house Guggenheim’s four-year-old
Museum of Non-Objective Painting.
The project would evolve into a complex struggle pitting
the architect against his clients, city officials, the art
world and public opinion. It would take over 15 years, 700
sketches and seven complete sets of working drawings
before Wright’s vision would be realized and the Solomon
R. Guggenheim Museum would open its doors for the
first time in 1959. By then both Guggenheim and Wright
had died.
The location of the Guggenheim Museum on Fifth
Avenue between 88
th
and 89
th
Streets is not accidental.
Its proximity to Central Park was key; as close to nature
as one can get in New York, the park affords relief from
the noise and congestion of the city.
Nature not only provided the museum with a respite from
New York’s distractions, but also lent it inspiration. The
Guggenheim Museum is an embodiment of Frank Lloyd
Wright’s attempts to utilize organic forms in architecture.
But even as it embraced nature, Wright’s design also
expresses his unique take on modernist architecture’s
rigid geometry. The building is a symphony of triangles,
ovals, arcs, circles and squares.
Wright dispensed with the conventional approach to
museum design, which led visitors through a series of
interconnected rooms. Instead, he whisked people to the
top of the building via elevator and led them downward
at a leisurely pace on the gentle slope of a continuous
ramp. The open rotunda afforded viewers the unique
possibility of seeing several bays of work on different
levels simultaneously.
The building itself has often been called the most
important piece of art in the Guggenheim collection.

When the museum opened to an enthusiastic public
on October 21, 1959, just six months after Frank Lloyd
Wright’s death, the relationship between the breathtaking
architecture of the building and the art it was built to
display inspired both controversy and debate. One
critic wrote that the museum turned out to be the
most beautiful building in America... never for a minute
dominating the pictures being shown,while another
insisted that the structure was “less a museum than a
monument to Frank Lloyd Wright.
Wright had originally suggested the construction of a tall
building behind the museum itself to house its administration
and provide the perfect backdrop to his structure, but it
would be 1992 before this was finally achieved.
Today the Guggenheim collection has grown substantially
and is now shared with other sister museums around
the world. The New York museum, however, remains the
spiritual home of the collection and receives over one
million visitors every year.

Arguably America’s greatest architect and among the
world’s most gifted, Frank Lloyd Wright was also a man of
boundless energy. In a career that spanned over 74 years,
he designed more than 900 works including houses,
offices, churches, schools, libraries, bridges, museums
and many other building types. Of that total, over 500
resulted in completed works. Today, over 400 of these
buildings still remain.
Wright’s creative mind was not only confined to
architecture. He also designed furniture, fabrics, art
glass, lamps, dinnerware, silver, linens and graphic arts.
In addition, he was a prolific writer, an educator and a
philosopher. He authored twenty books and countless
articles and lectured throughout the United States, as
well as in Europe.
Wright was born in 1867 in the rural farming town of
Richland Center, Wisconsin, just two years after the
American Civil War ended, and passed away at the age
of 91 in 1959. While there is evidence of Wright attending
both high school and the University of Wisconsin-Madison,
there is no record of him graduating from either. In 1887
Wright moved to Chicago and by the early 1890s he
was already head draftsman at the architectural firm of
Adler & Sullivan.
Wright was recognized as a brilliant architect by his peers
and continues to be revered today. No other architecture
took greater advantage of setting and environment. No
other architect glorified the sense of “shelter” as did Frank
Lloyd Wright. As he famously stated: A building is not just
a place to be. It is a way to be.
