A spectacular public event has been announced by the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the opening of the museum. Reflections will be an open, free-admission event made possible thanks to the collaboration of the City of Bilbao, the Provincial Council of Biscay, and Ibedrola. Designed specifically for the occasion, Reflections—a large-scale projection mapping event—has been conceived as a unique, sensory experience for both locals and visitors alike as the final event of the celebration year, which is being marked by a special art program and numerous cultural activities.
From 11-14 October, Frank Gehry’s iconic building will be turned into an impressive public artistic intervention by Tony Award-winning video artists, 59 Productions. The Museum will see its distinctive titanium curves and soaring glass atrium used as a vast canvas for a bespoke projection-mapping event for more than 200,000 spectators, free of charge across around 20 performances.
