Das 1959 eröffnete Guggenheim wurde von Frank Lloyd Wright entworfen und zählt zu den ikonischsten Bauwerken des 20. Jahrhunderts: eine durchgehende spiralförmige Rampe, die sich um ein lichtdurchflutetes Atrium windet. 1939 als Museum of Non-Objective Painting gegründet, umfasst die Sammlung heute rund 8.000 Werke des Impressionismus, Postimpressionismus sowie der modernen und zeitgenössischen Kunst, darunter einen umfangreichen Bestand an Werken von Vasily Kandinsky und die renommierte Thannhauser Collection. Das Gebäude ist Teil der UNESCO-Welterbeliste zu Wrights Architektur.
