Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.

At 83, Beskoitz's well-known storyteller dies. Urutz Robles-Arangiz is a writer born in the realm of Basque culture as a singer, playwright and dancer. As for the theatre, among other works, Sorginak taldea in Etxaburu de Beskoiztarrak, Matalas de Piarres Larzabal and Xuri-Gorriak de Daniel Landart. Robles-Arangiz is also a former member of the Basque Dramaturges Congress since its inception.

In the field of the song, in the late 1950s, the Soroak painting was created, among the four brothers and Txabi Villaverde. His four sisters formed the Ainara quartet and among the eight formed a choir. Since its dissolution, the hearings of the Soroak Group have been rare, the latest on the occasion of the tribute to Mixel Labegueri in Kanbo on 15 October 2000.

The son of Manu Robles-Arangiz, founder of the ELA union, and of Lurdes Bernaola, has belonged to a family of eleven family members devoted to culture and art. In 2010, Subai Colina interviewed ARGIA: "Not all that is said in Basque is Basque."

After his childhood in Lapurdi, he returned to Bizkaia with his parents at the age of thirteen. In 1960, at the age of 21, two older brothers were arrested for political reasons and had to return to Beskoitz.

EITB Kultura has determined that Urutz Robles-Arangitz suffered a stroke.
