Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, totally.

So like Bill Bow, so this essay is mainly focusing on the Guggenheim Foundation, but obviously in Abu Dhabi, there's a Louvre Abu Dhabi as well.

So, you know, there are different ways one could approach this, but the Guggenheim Bill Bow and the Guggenheim Abu Dhabi was kind of a point of focus, partly because... artists this has been a kind of fruitful topic for artists to make work about so it comes up in Alan Sekula's work and it comes up in Andrea Fraser's work but the thing about the museum in Bilbao is that that's kind of traditionally sold as a success story of the manner in which that's kind of regenerated the town of the city of Bilbao And I suppose what gets hidden underneath this kind of monumental architecture and the idea that there's this kind of unique tourist attraction that people really come in and visit whilst avoiding the kind of industrial underbelly that is the historical reality of Bilbao is the kind of the kind of implicit function that the museum then has in terms of kind of a temporal organization.

So the connection really was what I was thinking about in relation to Abu Dhabi and Bilbao was that what the museum in Bilbao is doing is trying to reorganize some post-industrial history.

And the Guggenheim in Abu Dhabi is really more about securing a kind of post-oil future.

They're using their oil revenue now to invest in all of these incredibly expensive cultural assets in the hope, well, the idea that one day when the money from the oil reserves diminishes, they'll have these assets.

the

The one in Berlin.

Exactly.

And then the history of the Vietnamese migrant workers of which her father was one and that's where he came over from Vietnam.

And what happened to those workers when the Berlin Wall came down and after reunification, they were basically left in a kind of limbo because all of their workers' rights were agreed in accordance with the GDR.

And once that no longer existed, these Vietnamese workers, of which there were like thousands, were just left in totally insecure positions.

And so this building then takes on many lives because it went from various layers of instability in a way.

And I think what the mosaic does, which is interesting, is that it kind of enacts this form of fragmentation of meaning.

Dan, would you like to say anything about what you think about that?
