A day at the Guggenheim last August wasn't enough, so we drove on from Burgos to Bilbao and its mountain-top camper-stop over-looking the city...only to find it closed until June! But we parked in the adjacent car-park, and were joined by other campers there, and promptly took the #58 bus down to great museum.

In a few minutes, and a tram ride, you're there |

We spent the first couple hours viewing an exhibition on
French art during WWII, 1937-1947; particularly impressive
in relating political and military events to events in the
artists' lives; not a happy story altogether |
|
A Frenchman named Steib, from Mulhousen,
stole the show... |
|
Thus; obviously was not exhibited until 1945... |
|
But then we spent most of our time learning about toros, and
cones, and spirals, in the Richard Serra The Matter of Tiime
exhibit, which we both love; and then walking, thoughtfully |
|
Thus |

And looking around |

Self-portraits in giant metallic tulips |

And around |

We liked the building more than we liked the exhibits when we were there. Glad to know that the tulips are still enchanting visitors.
