This exhibition features new works, including a series of light projections on the facade of the museum, which can be viewed each night from March 21 to March 30.</p></em><br /><br /><p>"The artist’s aim is to engage the public by creating evocative spaces that ask viewers to consider and potentially define their positions on contentious issues including the global refugee crisis, violence against women, and systemic abuses of power," reads the description of the new exhibition <em><a href="https://jennyholzer.guggenheim-bilbao.eus/en/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Jenny Holzer: Thing Indescribable</a></em>.</p>
<p>"The exhibition features newly created works, including electronic signs animated by robotic assemblies, paintings, and light projections. Writing by Basque, Spanish, and international poets will be projected onto the museum’s facade after dark from March 21 to March 30, creating a series of nighttime public events."</p>
