What is that a museum of? Motor racing? It certainly looks like a motorsport helmet.

Looks staggeringly cool, in fact. What is the building called?

dont think it is a motor museum, its just Valencia Museum, built in the old river bed, as they diverted the river around the city becoz of flooding apparently.

Theres 3 sections to it and it is supposed to shaped as an arddvark I believe.

ok just found this about the museum...

Built as a new millennium project, the Valencia Museum of Science is the centerpiece of the City of Arts and Science Park. The steel and glass structure was designed by Santiago Calatrava, a native of Valencia

Cool. Looks like a racing helmet to me (with the collar/back facing us in your very dramatic photo) smile
