Regrettably, I can't touch this one...
Not a big I.M. fan, but this one looks like something he has been building up to for quite awhile. Would that I had a client in Qatar. 🙂

I'd rather...
...visit Delvaux Museum in Belgium.
Or The National Museum of Western Art in Tokyo. Japanese do not have any oil wells, so they have to work hard.

Sara Hildén Art Museum building itself...
...is not attractive at all, but there are some real treasures, like Creatures In The Night (Joan Miro) and The Summer (Paul Delvaux).

Finnish National Gallery
It is not necessary to travel to Finland to see almost whole collection of Ateneum Art Museum and Museum of Contemporary Art Kiasma and Sinebrychoff Art Museum.
Whole collection can be seen here:
