Etxebarrieta, Pardines, Oteiza and Egiguren
Jesus Egiguren in his last book, speaking of Arantzazu, says: “I was thrilled by what they told me there, that – Oteiza – their best-known masterpiece, Jesus, who curses God for letting Jesus stay on the ground, that ETA ended the same day that he committed the first murder – that of the civil guard Pardines – and Oteiza said: ‘I offer this sculpture to Pardines, he is Jesus who is on earth, and the Virgin is the mother of Pardines, who is rebuking God for such injustice’ (Come and tell him. The Basque oasis).
I was surprised by Egiguren’s statement, precisely because I have always heard the opposite, that Oteiza dedicated Piety to Txabi Etxebarrieta, who is over the fourteen apostles of Arantzazu, in 1968.No I think there is no doubt about this (see Pelay Orozco: Oteiza. His life, his work, his thought, his word, 516. 71 and sec. ). So how can such contradictory versions of the same thing happen between us? Where did Egiguren get this version from? I don't think he lies or lies. What have you said in Arantzazu? It is not the usual explanation in Arantzazu. So? This mixed history makes me think of two things:
1. Difficulties to make a somewhat objective account of what has happened since the creation of ETA to the present day. In fact, there are those who want to read the whole story of ETA from the point of view of recent years, and others who are more comfortable thinking that that initial ETA has been the same as it has come to the end.
2. But perhaps this confusion about the sculpture left by Oteiza in Arantzazu is something prophetic or metaphorical. Perhaps that mother of Arantzazu is the mother of both, both Etxebarrieta and Pardines, and not of one or the other, because both (all victims) have had suffering mothers, and because the mothers of all have worked, I do not know God, but yes politicians, authorities, agents and other people, for not having solved what has happened here for so many years. Understanding this can help reconciliation. Wasn’t that how Oteiza himself, in the 1990s, later dedicated a memory to the two, Txabi and Pardines, in Tolosaldea?
