The collection is rich and varied, featuring works such as Antonio Saura's "Crucifixion", Yves Klein's "The Great Blue Anthropometry", and Jeff Koons' renowned outdoor sculptures like "Tulips". During our visit, you'll also hear fascinating stories about two iconic installations: the spider sculpture "Mama" by Louise Bourgeois and the much-loved puppy "Puppy" by Jeff Koons, which stands as a beloved emblem of the city.

Additionally, the tour will provide an insightful overview of other significant masterpieces at the Guggenheim Bilbao, which have marked pivotal moments in art history during the 20th and 21st centuries.
