Museum: Potential architecture symbol
Introduction
The Guggenheim Bilbao Museum, projected by Frank Gehry and opened in October 1997, was built with the objective of activating the economy of the Basque Country, recovering the Ría del Nervión, where it was located, as a cultural center of the city of the city. The Guggenheim Bilbao marked a transition, both of architecture and museums, making evident a new resurgence of the museum as an architectural show. This contemporary work was raised since its origin as an art symbol that introduces a conflict for being rupture with respect to the rules and precepts established for modern architecture.
The headquarters of the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao became in 1993 the materialization of these new experiments, leading to the development of a digital base architecture that has currently reached an evident level of exhaustion in the repetition of biomorphological forms resulting from digital automation A which have converged various contemporary architectural practices. In this sense, the Guggenheim the first global museum appears to us as the end of a long process in which the museum as an institution and as a building has been the subject of a wide cultural debate.
Developing
The Basque Country with the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, has occupied an international avant -garde level in terms of museum architecture, its media image being one of the architectural emblems of modern architecture. With the construction and spectacular mediatization deployed around the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, the international cartography of urban tourism took new directions marked by the so -called “Bilbao effect” and by increasingly global trends that are analyzed in this text. It is a sculptural building, fragmented volumes- in some cases of regular forms and in others of unusual curved silhouettes covered by titanium-, volumes and perspectives, sinuous curves, light and color games, a combination of elements that make each Sala a unique space that enhances the exposed art. The museum required the use of the design program for the Catia Aeronautics, for the manipulation of the forms and the design of volumes and facades. The building is built with titanium plates, limestone and glass. Inside the Guggenheim Museum in New York, several and different spaces are generated with little possibility of transformation in such a way that they can be presented in each of them, works with different characteristics, instead of creating a flexible and neutral space that subsequently adjustment to the needs of the collection.
conclusion
In conclusion, with the construction of the Guggenheim Museum, it was possible to use technology and innovation in architecture, thus achieving the revitalization of the country’s economy.
