Immerse yourself in a world of modern art at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum. Learn about the Museum's art and impressive architecture on a before-hours guided tour. Explore the galleries of this 'temple of spirit' before it opens to the public on an exclusive early access experience. Arrive at a separate entrance to the Museum, where you will meet your guide, an official Guggenheim gallery educator. Experience surreal calm as you roam the UNESCO-listed site and ascend the distinctive spiral walkway without the usual crowds. Go beneath the Museum to admire its underground theater. See behind the scenes with access to areas usually reserved only for Museum staff. Come face to face with innovative pieces brought to life through a variety of mediums and view notable works of the modern art movement. Enhance your understanding of the pieces and their place in art history with detailed commentary from your guide, Shinsuke Aso. Based in New York City, Aso is a talented artist and experienced art gallery educator originally from Japan.
