| The museum that made the building the masterpiece. Wright's white spiral on Fifth Avenue - art you walk down through. This is the Guggenheim as an architect sees it - accurate in proportion and detail, modelled from real geometry rather than a stylised impression. The expanding ribbon of the rotunda coiling upward, the horizontal bands of the small rotunda and annexe, the whole composition set defiantly against the Manhattan grid. The 120mm x 120mm base includes the surrounding context to scale: the Fifth Avenue frontage and the edge of Central Park rendered in low relief - because a building is never just a building. It is where you were standing when it mattered. The first look up through the atrium. The slow spiral down. The argument about whether the art or the building won. THE DETAILS - Architecturally accurate scale model on a 120mm x 120mm (12cm) base - Designed by an architect - Printed and hand-finished in our St Albans studio - Matte white finish - no paint, no gimmicks, just the architecture - Sits beautifully on a desk, shelf or mantelpiece; no assembly required WHO THIS IS FOR Museum lovers, New Yorkers, Wright devotees - the pair to Fallingwater. An art-school graduation gift, a desk piece for curators and gallery people, or a memory of the ramp for anyone who has walked it. |
