The story of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum is an extraordinary seventeen year drama played out between some of the greatest names in American art and architectural history. Completed six months after the death of the visionary architect, Frank Lloyd Wright, the Guggenheim Museum is now considered one of the greatest buildings in the world. This film tells the secrets, drama, rivalry, bitterness, and achievement through letters, read by Abraham and Bloom, found in the principals' possession. It also shows the triumphant re-opening of the museum after a 1992 restoration and the addition of a new extension.
