Guggenheim Museum Bilbao
From its inception in 1997, the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao’s
acquisition program has focused on art from the mid-20th century to the present,
complementing the Guggenheim’s renowned holdings while establishing its
own identity. Its collecting approach includes acquiring singular
examples and signature works by leading artists such as Joseph Beuys’ Lightning with Stag Caught in its Glare (1958–85), Robert Rauschenberg’s Barge (1962–63), purchased jointly with the museum in New York, and Jeff Koons’ Puppy
(1992), which has assumed an iconic status in its position before the
museum’s entrance. Following the Guggenheim’s model, Bilbao’s
collection also features in-depth holdings of individual artists, such
as Anselm Kiefer, with the aim of revealing their development over the
course of their careers. More
