Serving as a finale to the museum’s 50th anniversary celebrations, Contemplating the Void: Interventions in the Guggenheim Museum was a benefit exhibition featuring renderings of visionary projects in a salon-style installation.
The wall represented in the provided watercolors consists of QuaDror squares, specifically designed to form a rhombus when in the open position. The beginning and end of the wall thus create a true vertical edge as the wall rises parallel to the floor’s slope. Spanning 410° in the middle of the museum's spiraling floor, the wall doubles the unbroken feeling of the Guggenheim ramp by showing an additional beginning and end.
