Description:10,000 copies of this book, designed by Liberty Perugi, have been printed by Officine Grafiche Firenze in October 1975 for the Trustees of The Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation. Millions of visitors, young and old, from all parts of the world and from all walks of life, have been through this building and have experienced its changing programs since the doors were opened more than fifteen years ago. Largely forgotten now are the anguished outcries that accompanied the Museum's first presentation when its novelty and its radical deviation from the accustomed norm overshadowed the qualities of serenity and harmony for which the structure is liked and admired today. A threefold accord between architecture, art and people has, over these years, given distinction to the great retrospectives that have made telling contributions to public awareness of modern art. Kandinskv and Klee, Munch and Schiele, Giacometti and Ernst, Calder and Smith, Dubuffet and Lichtenstein, among many others, have unfolded down the ramps and into the level spaces of the High Gallery and the monumental Central Court — always in relation to the architecture's masses and voids, always peopled and enlivened by throngs of viewers. The photographs and the descriptive passages in this publication may, we hope, convey some of the building's attributes to those as yet unfamiliar with it and serve as a souvenir for those who have visited and enjoyed it. Incidentally and inevitably, the booklet also celebrates the achievement of Frank Lloyd Wright, the architect, and the vision of Solomon R. Guggenheim, the founder.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
