Visit The Twist Museum, Jevnaker, Norway

The Twist is a gallery, a bridge, and a sculpture, all in one. When people visit they can walk across the bridge while enjoying art exhibits. It was designed by architectural firm Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG). The Twist opened to the public on September 18, 2019 with an exhibition titled 'Hodgkin & Creed - Inside Out' featuring the works of artists Howard Hodgkin and Martin Creed. The glazed-glass sides of the museum follow the warping of the twist, creating a side-lit space at the northern, which provides views of the old pulp mill further up along the river, sky-lit space at the southern part of the building and a dark gallery on the lower level. Furthermore, the glazed parts of the building are fitted with UV-reflecting coating and a shading system, to control solar radiation.
