The event marks the release of MAS Context’s thirty-first issue, which explores the development of Bilbao, Spain, before and after the construction of the Frank Gehry-designed Guggenheim Museum. The issue includes an interview with John Zils, SOM Associate Partner Emeritus, who served as a structural engineer for the Guggenheim Bilbao.
