The art of artificial intelligence

It is a new dimension of art in which technology and creativity merge into breathtaking visual experiences. Turkish-American media artist Refik Anadol, known for his work with artificial intelligence and data, creates abstract, immersive, dream-like environments from data streams. So, what does it mean to be human in the age of artificial intelligence?

Get to the bottom of this question at the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao from March to October 2025. You may find the answer in the fascinating AI-driven installations. Anadol's AI data paintings and sculptures, audiovisual live performances and immersive installations immerse you in an unparalleled universe. And when you need a break from the digital world, the green north of Spain invites you to discover natural, relaxed, refreshing or culinary art on the Bay of Biscay.

Boundless – Bogotá's creative heart

It's not just that one museum or one street – Bogotá is a vibrant metropolis where tradition and innovation, creativity and courage merge into a unique urban work of art. You can feel it immediately. For example, in La Candelaria – here in Bogotá's historic old town, between colorful colonial facades and winding alleys, one of the most vibrant art scenes in South America unfolds.

Stroll through the lively alleys as if through a vibrant gallery. Cobblestone streets lead you to colorful facades that serve as canvases for impressive street art. And they are worth stopping in front of. Take a closer look: the murals in Bogotá are not only impressive works of art, but also powerful expressions of social and political messages. Local and international artists have immortalized themselves on huge wall surfaces – up to seven stories high. From September to November 2025, Bogotá will celebrate art at the first international art biennial, BOG25. A major event that will make your artistic heart beat faster.
