BILBAO, Spain —
Bilbao Guggenheim Museum, a masterpiece of American architecture, is a whirlpool of curved structures made of titanium by Frank Gaili.
But walking into this amazing building, the celebration of the United States is over.
Most of the second floor is dedicated to the work of American artist Jenny Holzer, who seems to be full of disgust at the land she was born on.
When you enter a gallery, you will see an exhibition called "inflammatory articles", a series of posters printed on colored paper containing various declarations of the artist.
They were originally attached to the public space in New York City and are now painting the walls of the gallery with a geometric rainbow.
The speech is beautiful, but nothing but emotion.
The first one I saw was right at the door with the title "End of America"S. A.
It says, "all your wealth----
See the beginning of the end and do what you can.
You thought you 'd get away, but you already--
In your own bed, now you are the one to sleep in.
Why do other people have to stay and smell you stinky and weak?
This is the message for you.
Space travel is uncertain and any of your shelters can disappear from the map.
There is no other place for you to go.
Know that your future is by our side, so don't give us more reasons to hate you. ” Charming.
The posters are translated into basks, Spanish, French and German, so that visitors from many countries can accept the feelings of horze, according to Guggenheim, "consider the need for social change, the potential for propaganda to manipulate the public, and the conditions for participating in the revolution.
In another gallery, Holzer created paintings with edited American paintings. S.
Government documents related to the interrogation of terrorist detainees in Guantanamo Bay and Iraq and Afghanistan.
Some of the canvas shows intelligence documents with black editorial lines of gold and silver leaves, while others are handwritten statements by detainees claiming all kinds of terrible abuse in the hands of Americans.
Noting that terrorists have been trained to lie about ill-treatment during detention, and that numerous government investigations have found no torture or ill-treatment at Guantanamo Bay, as they did in Abu Ghraib, the abusive was investigated and punished.
The vast majority of AmericansS.
The persons in charge of the detention and interrogation of the terrorists served gloriously to prevent another attack we suffered on September 11, 2001.
But if you look at the show, you think the American army is modern.
It is equivalent to the day of the Spanish church.
Her work is not all that objectionable.
In an exhibition, a four
Vertical LED logo scrolling from the ceiling-
Accounts of people detained and tortured by the brutal regime of Bashar alAssad in Syria.
But even here, the parallel of this exhibition with the edited military documents seems to send out a subtle message that there is really no moral difference between Assad and the United States ---
Both are systems of torture.
In fact, it is the United States. S.
The armed forces fighting the Assad regime have prevented him from using chemical weapons against innocent civilians and have driven the Islamic State out of its murderous caliphate.
Men and women in America. S.
The Army risks our lives every day to protect us from evil elements.
Their brave service gave Holzer the freedom to create art.
It's not surprising that the art world is left.
But the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao
An American Foundation-owned institution in the heart of Spain
Turned into something worse:
American propaganda
The museum is spreading slander against American men and women. S.
In foreign countries, military and inciting hatred of the United States.
In the file edited by the gallery, one of her recent works is shown --
Robert S. , special adviser, presented a page in large numbers
Miller III's case against Paul Manafort
What is missing from the exhibition is a page in Miller's actual report that claims no conspiracy with Russia.
She has not yet turned that edited document into art.
I'm sure she's trying.
