The entrance to the Basque Museum in Bilbao will be free from 22 to 30 August on the occasion of Big Week
Visitors will be able to visit the semi-permanent exhibition, learn about Ra Asensi's contemporary proposal "Waves" and enjoy the traditional exhibition "Giants of Bilbao".
The museum reports that the space will be open from Monday to Saturday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. (Friday, August 28, and Sunday, August 30, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.).
According to them, this decision "coincides with the celebration of Big Week". The Museum offers free admission to all audiences from 22 to 30 August. During this period, it "invites billiards and visitors to learn about its renewed museum proposal and to enjoy an exhibition schedule that integrates tradition and contemporaneity".
In addition to enjoying a semi-permanent exhibition that aims to bring the visitor closer to Basque history, heritage and culture, visitors will be able to learn abouttwo temporary exhibitions that are underway this summer at the Museum.
On the one hand, the artist Ra Asensi's exhibition Uhinak , located in the Kukula area, proposes a contemporary reinterpretation of the Bilbao Basque Museum collection through a sculptural installation that reflects on the voices, memory and heritage of women linked to the Basque pottery tradition.
The Giants of Bilbao
On the other hand, the cloister will host the exhibition of the giants of Bilbao, dedicated to one of the most beloved traditions of the villa.
During the Big Week the exhibition takes on an even more special character, because every morning the giants will leave the Basque Museum in Bilbao for their traditional pasacalles along the Seven Streets.
After the pasacalles have been completed, they will return to the cloister of the Museum, where they will be seen again for the rest of the day. Anyone who wishes to do so has at hand another of the members of this exhibition, consisting of another generation of giants at the San Francisco site (Count Mirasol Street, 2).
