Frank Gehry's $1B Guggenheim Opens in Abu Dhabi in 2026
After 20 years of planning, the stunning Guggenheim Abu Dhabi will open its doors in December 2026, showcasing a truly global art collection in one of Frank Gehry's signature metallic designs. The museum aims to rewrite art history by placing Western icons alongside underrepresented artists from Asia, Africa, and the Arab world.
