Art lovers, whether fans of modern or classical art, will undoubtedly find themselves right at home in Bilbao considering the two fantastic museums which the city boasts. Let’s take a look at Bilbao’s two crown jewels of art.

Guggenheim Museum Bilbao

One of Frank Gehry’s most notable architectural feats is the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, an ode to modernist architecture and art. The impressive silver structure might be the main attraction, but there is also a large number of art pieces by notable art figures such as Richard Serra and Jeff Koons.

Museum of Fine Arts of Bilbao

If contemporary art isn’t your thing, don’t fret! The Museum of Fine Arts of Bilbao boasts one of the country’s best collections of art, dating from the 16th century until the 20th century. You can find paintings by Spanish icons such as Francisco de Goya and El Greco here.

Here are a few of his most famous ones.

Fallingwater

Perhaps his most famous designs and definitely one of the most beautiful, Fallingwater is an absolute masterpiece. It is one of eight of Wright’s buildings to be added to the UNESCO World Heritage List, and perhaps the most unique. As the name suggests, it is a beautiful house built over a waterfall in rural Pennsylvania, 43 miles southeast of Pittsburgh.

Guggenheim Museum

The Guggenheim Museum is also one of Wright’s most famous works, partly because of its location in New York City, and partly because it was the last building he designed before his death in 1959. Completely contrasting New York City’s grid, the museum’s exterior is made of white concrete swirling towards the sky. The famous spiral staircase inside is the masterpiece of the museum, and attracts visitors both for the art and for the famous architecture.

Millard House

This residence in Pasadena, California, was Wright’s first textile block home. The house was completed in 1923 and looks like real life Legos coming together. What is unique about this home is that despite being built of many concrete blocks, it blends in to the surrounding nature, fitting Wright’s slogan of organic architecture.

On your next trip to Bilbao, be sure to do these three things.

Visit the Vizcaya Bridge

A short subway ride from the center of Bilbao is the Vizcaya Bridge, located near the Ria of Bilbao’s discharge into the Bay of Biscay. This unique, iron-clad structure was the world’s first transporter bridge and carries people and cars across the river using a massive gondola.

Go to an Athletic Club Match at San Mames

If there is one thing that all Bilbao natives have in common, it is their love and support for Athletic Club, the city’s storied soccer team. A match in San Mames, a brilliant and modern stadium holding 53,289 fans, is a great way to feel the passion of the city and to live one of the most passionate stadium experiences on the planet. 

Marvel at the Guggenheim Museum

The Frank Gehry-designed Guggenheim Museum was completed in 1997 and has become the most recognizable symbol of Bilbao. The striking titanium-clad exterior of the structure, as well as the collection of world-class contemporary art inside of it, are both things to marvel at.

Gehry has created and designed works all over the world. If you are a fan of these works, check out these buildings, three of his most decorated and famous creations.

Guggenheim Museum: Bilbao, Spain

Bilbao’s Guggenheim Museum is one of the most striking and eye-catching buildings that Gehry has ever created. Featuring broad, swooping curves and clad in titanium, it’s a building that’s absolutely fitting for a museum of contemporary art.

Dancing House: Prague, Czech Republic

Located on the banks of the Vltava River in Prague is the Dancing House, one of Gehry’s most controversial projects. Opened in 1992, this slanted, angular building contrasts sharply with the Gothic and Baroque architectural styles found throughout the city. It is, without a doubt, a work of art.

Museum of Pop Culture: Seattle, Washington, USA

Adjacent to the Space Needle in Seattle is the Museum of Pop Culture, a building that was designed by Gehry and opened in 2000. The Canadian architect designed a chaotic, modern building that, in his own words, was inspired by a smashed electric guitar. It’s definitely eye-catching.
