☀️ ¡Luz! Los 2.500 cristales que se distribuyen por la estructura del Museo proporcionan al interior una gran cantidad de luz natural. ¿Sabías que Frank Gehry los concentró principalmente en el Atrio y los accesos para evitar reflejos molestos en las obras?

Las pasarelas diseñadas por Frank Gehry para unir unas salas con otras, nos "obligan" a pasar por el Atrio cada vez que queremos cambiar de espacio. Esta disposición, además de facilitar no perdernos, nos permite visualizar del corazón del Museo desde diferentes alturas y perspectivas. ¿Qué te parece la idea?

Guggenheim Museum Bilbao

Designed by Frank Gehry, the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain is a spectacular twisting titanium-clad modern art museum and perhaps the most celebrated building of the 1990s. The graceful, sensuous curves, evocative of the ships that used to be ubiquitous along the docks of Bilbao, are covered in titanium squares, which resemble the scales of a fish and shimmer in the sunlight. The museum features permanent and visiting exhibits of works by Spanish and international artists.

National Palace Museum

In the final years of the Chinese Civil War the most prized items in the museum’s collection were moved to Taiwan. By the time the items arrived in Taiwan, the communist army had already seized control of the Palace Museum.
