Beñat Arruti wins the 7th Donostia Kultura poetry competition

  • The editorial Balea Zuria publishes in June the first literary work of Arruti: Archaeology in meat.
Donostia Kultura

Beñat Arruti Irigoien (Zarautz, 1999) won the seventh edition of the Donostia Kultura poetry competition for young writers with the work Archaeology in meat. In June it will be published by the editorial Balea Zuria.

The jury, composed of Eli Tolaretxipi, Itxaro Borda and Aritz Gorrotxategi, has highlighted Arruti's "splendor of reflection and language", as it is a collection of poems "well equipped with quotation and reading". They say, "Poems are given spontaneous rhythm and music, the aisa slides into the reader's ears, and there's a lot of work behind that adjustment. It is a balanced and coherent work in general, with a great unity of style and tone."

In addition, those responsible for the poetry competition Donostia Kultura have highlighted that in this edition there has been a "very high", and the work of Arruti, Arqueología en carne, has competed "very closely" with Black Sister and City, diglosia, soledad.

He has studied psychology at the UPV/EHU from Arruti and in Barcelona at the Master's in Psychosocial Research and Intervention. In the latter he healed the tesina on gender and Hitano, which ARGIA performed last February – 2860. It was the reference of a report published in number 1 and one of its interlocutors was Arruti himself. Currently, Arruti works with people with intellectual disabilities at a Zarautz day center.
