The Guggenheim Abu Dhabi is a planned art museum under construction on Saadiyat Island, designed by architect Frank Gehry and expected to open in 2026 as the largest Guggenheim museum facility. Visitors will experience approximately 130,000 square feet of exhibition space featuring modern and contemporary art from West Asia, North Africa, and South Asia, housed in a distinctive building inspired by traditional Middle Eastern architecture with galleries connected by catwalks around a central courtyard. The museum will also include education and research facilities, conservation laboratories, and centers dedicated to contemporary Arab, Islamic, and Middle Eastern culture.
