Go to the Guggenheim. Want to be part of the Millennium generation? Go to the Guggenheim. The building&#8217;s architecture means more to me than its exhibits. I get a thrill romping up the white painted rotunda&#8217;s incline, poking into niche exhibits and then looking down from the top at the circles I&#8217;ve just climbed.
