Guggenheim museum

Outside of building close to the river
We went to the Guggenheim museum. The building is in the northern Spanish town of Bilbao. It was built in 1997. It is made of limestone, glass and titanium. The man who designed it is Frank Gehry. It was very exciting.

Before going into the museum we saw some art work, it was a dog. It was as big as a building. The dog was in front of the museum. The man who made it is Jeff Kooons. He called the artwork "Puppy" . "Puppy" is made out of flowers. It made me happy.

My second favourite piece of art was a ballerina film. It was about a ballerina dancing on a table with cakes and candles all made out of plastercine.

Also at the museum we saw other art from famous artists including Picasso, Dali and Matisse.

Overall I thought the museum was amazing and I especially like the building.

Hi Grandma Katie,
I don't think I will be able to fit the puppy in my
suitcase either! We are in Madrid now and I'm looking
forward to seeing you in London!
Love Kayla
