About the Item

This painting is inspired by the night of June 24. The shortest night of the year. In the Basque culture, this night is very special, big bonfires are made to burn the bad thoughts and purify the souls. The bonfire is skipped several times. They wait for the sunrise to see the first rays of the sun and complete this purification. .... Alberto Letamendi, is an artist from Ordizia (Basque Country) born in 1964. In his work, whether in painting or sculpture, he uses various techniques with a preference for natural materials such as fe powder, wood and pigments. His series "ITXAROPENA" - Hope - is a work, inspired by Basque heritage. The artist with his characters dressed in traditional Basque costumes, shows us his vision of local solidarity and mutual aid. The human warmth released by the bright colors, refers to the idea of communion and unity that exists in its territory. Great artist of the new Basque generation, Alberto Letamendi is an artist followed for years by some collectors. In 2019, the artist inaugurated a sculpture "Elkarri Begirra" commissioned by the city of Tolosa (Spain), to celebrate the peace process in the Basque Country.
