The Guggenheim was founded in 1939 in New York City as the Museum of Non-Objective Painting. It was established by Solomon R. Guggenheim, a wealthy industrialist and art collector, with guidance from artist and curator Hilla Rebay, to showcase avant-garde and abstract art—particularly works by artists like Kandinsky, Rudolf Bauer, and László Moholy-Nagy. The museum's iconic spiral building, designed by legendary architect Frank Lloyd Wright, opened in 1959—just six months after Wright’s death. The architecture itself, with its unique ramp gallery and organic curves, became a modernist landmark and a major draw in its own right. Today it continues to be a vital institution for groundbreaking exhibitions and innovative programming that challenge and redefine the boundaries of art.
