The image takes Francisco Durrio\u2019s \u201cMonumento a Arriaga\u201d as its starting point and brings Euterpe, muse of music, into the world of cinema. The Festival will take place in Bilbao from 20 to 27 November.<\/p>\r\n<p>The tribute responds to two events connected with Bilbao\u2019s cultural life. Firstly, the opening of the extension to the Bilbao Fine Arts Museum, Bilbao Museoa, where the \u201cMonumento a Arriaga\u201d occupies a central position in the new atrium. Secondly, the commemoration in 2026 of the bicentenary of the death of Juan Cris\u00f3stomo de Arriaga, the Bilbao-born composer to whom the sculpture is dedicated.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"fake-h3\"><h6>FROM MUSIC TO CINEMA<\/h6><\/div>\r\n<p>In the poster, the figure takes on a golden hue, evoking some of the most iconic trophies in cinema, while its silhouette stands out against a dark sky. The lyre held by Euterpe in the original sculpture has been replaced by a reel of 16 mm film. With this change, cinema takes the place of music in Durrio\u2019s work.<\/p>\r\n<p>The composition retains the prominence of the figure and focuses attention on her pose and the object she holds. The contrast between the gold and the dark background accentuates her presence: Euterpe appears proud and steadfast, yet at the same time completely exposed.<\/p>\r\n<p>It is within this tension that Lazkano\u2019s proposal lies. The image evokes the strength and effort required to make films, together with the act of offering the work to the audience and the vulnerability inherent in any form of artistic creation. The poster thus brings together the memory of the composer, Durrio\u2019s sculpture and the language of cinema in a reinterpretation conceived for ZINEBI 68.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"fake-h3\"><h6>JES\u00daS MARI LAZKANO<\/h6><\/div>\r\n<p>Jes\u00fas Mari Lazkano (Bergara, 1960) is an artist whose work explores the relationships between architecture, landscape and nature. A graduate and PhD in Fine Arts from the University of the Basque Country, he has also taught in its Department of Painting. He lives and works in Urdaibai and has exhibited his work in countries across Europe, the Americas and Asia. He is a full member of Jakiunde, the Basque Academy of Sciences, Arts and Letters.<\/p>\r\n<p>His relationship with Bilbao includes solo exhibitions at the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao in 2007 and the Bilbao Fine Arts Museum in 2010. He has also created large-scale interventions in spaces such as the Euskalduna Palace and Metro Bilbao. His work has extended into the audiovisual field with \u201cArtiko\u201d, a film linked to his exploration of the Arctic landscape. In 2025, he also took part in the first edition of ZINEBI Animation Lab.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/zinebi.eus\/assets\/media\/cartel-Zinebi68-768x1148.jpg\"><img alt=\"\" width=\"768\" height=\"1148\" class=\"aligncenter size-size_768 wp-image-42887 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/zinebi.eus\/assets\/media\/cartel-Zinebi68-768x1148.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zinebi.eus\/assets\/media\/cartel-Zinebi68-768x1148.jpg 768w, https:\/\/zinebi.eus\/assets\/media\/cartel-Zinebi68-150x224.jpg 150w, https:\/\/zinebi.eus\/assets\/media\/cartel-Zinebi68-300x449.jpg 300w, https:\/\/zinebi.eus\/assets\/media\/cartel-Zinebi68-400x598.jpg 400w, https:\/\/zinebi.eus\/assets\/media\/cartel-Zinebi68-480x718.jpg 480w, https:\/\/zinebi.eus\/assets\/media\/cartel-Zinebi68-550x822.jpg 550w, https:\/\/zinebi.eus\/assets\/media\/cartel-Zinebi68-992x1483.jpg 992w, https:\/\/zinebi.eus\/assets\/media\/cartel-Zinebi68.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The image reinterprets Francisco Durrio\u2019s sculpture, replacing the lyre held by Euterpe, muse of music, with a reel of 16 mm film.
