  • NESTOR BASTERRETXEA. BIOGRAFIA AUTOR Nacido En
    NESTOR BASTERRETXEA. BIOGRAFIA AUTOR Nacido en Bermeo (1924), la Guerra Civil española empuja a su familia a un temprano exilio en 1936, residiendo en diversos lugares de Francia hasta 1941. El estallido de un nuevo conflicto, la II Guerra Mundial, le deparará un segundo exilio que les conduce a Buenos Aires, Argentina (1942). Sus cualidades naturales en la técnica del dibujo le permitieron desarrollar una formación autodidacta y el acceso a su primer trabajo; con apenas 20 años obtuvo su primer empleo en ultramar como dibujante publicitario. En 1952 hace un viaje personal a Europa y retoma el contacto con Jorge Oteiza. Animado por este se presentará al concurso de los Murales de la Cripta de la nueva Basílica de Arantzazu (Oñate), donde trabaja ya el propio Oteiza. Al ganar el concurso se ponían a su disposición unos 650 m² de superficie total repartidos en 18 murales. Este es uno de los capítulos más agri-dulces de la vida del artista, ya que supuso un gran espaldarazo profesional enfrentarse a este encargo pero cuyo capítulo final provocaría un gran disgusto. Trabajó en ellos con entusiasmo durante más de dos años, pero se cerró en falso al suprimir la orden franciscana, en una sola noche, la mayor parte de su trabajo por considerar el resultado inadecuado. En palabras de Edorta Kortadi se trataba de “Bocetos de carácter simbólico expresionista siempre sobre una poética cubista heredada de los pintores vascos de preguerra y de Picasso, […] base de aquella pintura recia y construida que él había proyectado para los muros”. Su rabioso expresionismo no fue entendido por los promotores eclesiásticos.

  • Beyond Guernica and the Guggenheim
    Beyond Guernica and the Guggenheim Beyond Art and Politics from a Comparative Perspective a Comparative from Art and Politics Beyond Guernica and the Guggenheim This book brings together experts from different fields of study, including sociology, anthropology, art history Art and Politics from a Comparative Perspective and art criticism to share their research and direct experience on the topic of art and politics. How art and politics relate with each other can be studied from numerous perspectives and standpoints. The book is structured according to three main themes: Part 1, on Valuing Art, broadly concerns the question of who, how and what value is given to art, and how this may change over time and circumstance, depending on the social and political situation and motivation of different interest groups. Part 2, on Artistic Political Engagement, reflects on another dimension of art and politics, that of how artists may be intentionally engaged with politics, either via their social and political status and/or through the kind of art they produce and how they frame it in terms of meaning. Part 3, on Exhibitions and Curating, focuses on yet another aspect of the relationship between art and politics: what gets exhibited, why, how, and with what political significance or consequence. A main focus is on the politics of art in the Basque Country, complemented by case studies and reflections from other parts of the world, both in the past and today. This book is unique by gathering a rich variety of different viewpoints and experiences, with artists, curators, art historians, sociologists and anthropologists talking to each other with sometimes quite different epistemological bases and methodological approaches.

  • El Imaginario Artístico De “Lo Vasco”
    El imaginario artístico de “lo vasco”. Prácticas y políticas culturales a finales del siglo XX The Artistic Imaginary of “Basquesness”. Cultural Practices and Policies at the End of the 20th Century ANE LEKUONA-MARISCAL Universidad del País Vasco [email protected] Resumen: El artículo analiza el cruce iniciado a partir de los años de la transición entre el discurso cultural del Gobierno Vasco y la difusión reiterada del lenguaje plástico de los escultores que habían participado en los años sesenta en el grupo guipuzcoano Gaur. Se estudian las razones que motivaron esta unión entre las directrices políticas y el imaginario artístico, así como los cambios que se han ido produciendo hasta la actualidad y sus efectos. Por otra parte, se analiza la relación entre dicho fenómeno y la configuración de la historia del arte del País Vasco de la segunda mitad del siglo xx. Palabras clave: País Vasco, Transición, PNV-EAJ, Historia del arte, Cultura institucional. Abstract: This article analyses the crossover that began in the years of the Spanish Political Transition between the cultural discourse of the Basque Government and the repeated dissemination of the plastic language of the sculptors who had participated in the Gaur group in the 1960s. We examine the reasons that motivated this union between political guidelines and the artistic imagination, as well as the changes that have taken place up to the present time and their effects. Furthermore, it analyzes the relationship between this phenomenon and the configuration of the Basque art history of the second half of the 20th century. Keywords: Basque Country, Transition, PNV-EAJ, Art History, Institutional Culture.

In its widest definition, the Basque diaspora refers to people who identify with some form of Basque lineage and who live outside of the Basque Country. My portraits of such people has grown as I meet them through Basque cultural associations, through common friends back in the Basque Country, or simply through “non-Basque” people who introduce us, believing that, as fellow Basques, we must have something in common. We are thus brought together through the networks that typically define a diaspora. Ultimately, the reason for painting these specific individuals was personal and subjective: I asked to paint them because I found them interesting and wished to get to know them better. As for them, I like to think that the feeling was mutual, as well as being curious about the experience of posing for a painted portrait.
