Hiking in the fall, lucky to live in New England

Guggenheim Bilbao = Gehry’s titanium waves hugging the Nervión—industrial past, futuristic skin. Outside/around it, a sculpture constellation: Jeff Koons’ Puppy (and Tulips), Louise Bourgeois’ Maman, Anish Kapoor’s Tall Tree & The Eye, Daniel Buren’s red arc on La Salve Bridge, Fujiko Nakaya’s Fog Sculpture, and Yves Klein’s Fire Fountain. Inside, Richard Serra’s epic The Matter of Time—steel corridors you walk through. Bilbao’s urban rebirth, in 3D.
