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.

Born in Oridizia (Gipuzkoa) and resident in Tolosa. In his work, both in painting and sculpture, he uses various techniques although there is a preference for natural materials such as iron powder, stone, wood, and natural pigments. In his eclectic artistic production the common thread that we can find is on the one hand his great interest in cultural diversity; its manifestations, its histories, the richness it implies... but on the other hand, it also reflects the conflict and inequality generated by the hierarchical presence of the same. The consequences suffered by the environment and people, the moral condition of mankind, individuality, loneliness or group potentiality. He is currently developing the series "LOTURAK vs. LOKARRIAK" / "BEING/STANDING SUBJECT". Both the pictorial and sculptural part of this series is inspired by alienation, absurdity, loneliness or generational conflict
