 The facade of the Guggenheim in Bilbao.

I found it difficult in this challenge to avoid using someone else's artwork, so here you go. At least I cropped to make it less about the building and more about the surface.

The alternative I had was the facade of a Gaudi building in Barcelona or a door with crackled paint and cobwebs, which was beautiful but more suitable for a "structures" challenge.

Really like this, love the structure. I'd probably have cropped it at the botton even more but it's a great shot.

One of my favorites of the challenge. I like that the structure is identifiable and yet the composition is an implied abstract. The lighting adds intrigue.

In this case, the façade is already a piece of art!
