It's fascinating to see the Guggenheim in Abu Dhabi finally coming to life... with a 15 year delay!!

Frank Gehry-Designed Long-Delayed Guggenheim Abu Dhabi Will Open In 2025

“Approaching the design of the museum for Abu Dhabi made it possible to consider options for the design of a building that would not be possible in the United States or in Europe. It was clear from the beginning that this had to be a new invention. The landscape, the opportunity, the requirement, to build something that people all over the world would come to, and the possible resource to accomplish it opened tracks that were not likely to be considered anywhere else. The site itself, virtually on the water or close to the water on all sides, in a desert landscape with the beautiful sea and the light quality of the place suggested some of the direction.” said Gehry.
