The global constellation of Guggenheim museums understands the basic human need for connection.
While socially distancing at home, you may find yourself spending more time than usual looking out your window. We invite you to consider that view actually or metaphorically, through art making, and to post your response in any media at #GuggenheimTogether by May 24 for the chance to have your work featured on social media.
Some artists in the Guggenheims’ international collections have similarly spent time considering the perspective out their windows. For inspiration, browse our collection online or see the gallery below.

We believe that art making allows us to find and share significance in our individual experiences, while viewing works of art that others have created allows us to see the world from different perspectives. We value your unique vision and hope you will share it with our global community.
