In 2006, Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates, announced an agreement with the Guggenheim Foundation to build a new museum, "Guggenheim Abu Dhabi". Gehry designed the structure, which will, if completed, be the foundation's largest by far. It began construction on the northwest tip of Saadiyat Island, where a performing arts center and other museums have been built. The completion date has been pushed back repeatedly, and the museum is now expected to open about 2023 at the earliest. The museum is expected to house modern and contemporary collections that will focus on Middle-Eastern contemporary art and to display special exhibitions from the foundation's main collection.
