Forever Is Now returns for its fifth edition, running through December on the Giza Plateau
\nThe showcase features 10 site-specific commissions by an international roster of artists
\nThe theme centers the mythic and historical dimensions of the pyramids and the timeless power of art<\/p>\n
Fresh off the opening<\/a> of the Grand Egyptian Museum in Cairo, Forever Is Now<\/a> returns to the Giza Plateau with a crop of new sculptural commissions, for that special month of the year when the ancient pyramids<\/a> turn into an open-air art gallery. Running through December 6, the 2025 edition pays tribute to the timeless allure of Egypt\u2019s cultural heritage, exploring the mythic layers of the pyramids and how they\u2019ve rippled into arenas of art, philosophy, culture and history.<\/p>\n Ten international artists were tapped to create large-scale, site-specific installations circling the timeless power of art and how its meanings bend, shift and endure through eras. Weaving throughout the sculpture park, visitors will confront ideas of memory, temporality, spirituality, and nature, rendered through the majesty of its ancient backdrop.\n<\/p>\n Highlights from the ongoing edition include \u201cDoors of Cairo\u201d by Vhils<\/a>, which alchemizes found street objects into portals between epochs, and Jongkyo Park\u2019s \u201cCode of Eternal,\u201d a geometric work incorporating nearly 1,000 stainless steel mirror dots that flicker into an encrypted message. Additional standouts include Turkish artist Ege K\u00f6se\u2019s chromatic reinterpretation of the Shen, a symbol of infinity and divine protection, and the symphony of desert winds sung by Ana Ferrari\u2019s \u201cWind,\u201d composed of 21 upright, aluminum flutes.\n<\/p>\n
