Stepping into Bill Viola’s world at the opening of his exhibition at the Almaty Museum of Arts felt less like visiting an exhibition and more like entering a space where time slows down. Light, silence, water, life, death, emotion- everything asks you to pause and simply feel.

A deeply meaningful evening. For the first time, Central Asia has the opportunity to experience Bill Viola’s greatest works- a landmark exhibition that we are incredibly proud to see here in Almaty, Kazakhstan.

The exhibition is on view until 17 January 2027
