The second prize was awarded by Leandro Ezequiel Martínez (Argentina) and the third by Nikola Listes (Croatia). On the right, the winner's drawing.

 

The exhibition Caligcromías by the artist Iñaki Ruiz de Egino has been exhibited throughout the summer in the cloister of the Monastery of San Salvador in Urdazubi (Navarre). Now, the San Sebastián sculptor has installed two large pieces in this place: It is called the Birth of the Cube of 450 kilos and the Rise of 3,000 kilos. In addition, several other works can be seen in the monastery until January 2, in the exhibition entitled 50 years of painting in the Basque Country, among which are the paintings of José Luis Zumeta.

 
 

104 librarians in the Basque Country denounce the campaign against Xabier Makazaga’s book El manual del torturador español (The Spanish Torturer’s Manual, 2009): “We are concerned about this case of censorship and we want to denounce it so that politicians are no longer involved in professional matters. (...) Public library funds and services should not be subject to any ideological, political or religious censorship or commercial pressure. The Chalaparta has put the entire book on the Internet for free download.

 

The Gustavo de Maeztu Museum in Estella (Navarre) has received the retrospective exhibition of the painter Fernando Beorlegi (Campanas, Navarra, 1928-Eibar, Gipuzkoa, 2008), entitled The Bitter Brushstrokes of the Mind. In the words of his son, Mikel Beorlegi, “there are countless isms that can be used to try to classify his work, but it is very difficult. He chose according to the moment how to reflect his vision of reality.” The exhibition will be open until February 28.

The 'favorite' places
