The lehendakari impulsará la proyección cultural internacional de Euskadi en su viaje de la próxima semana a Italia
El lehendakari, Imanol Pradales, viajará a Italia los próximos 6, 7 y 8 de mayo con una agenda marcada por el impulso a la proyección cultural internacional de Euskadi, en un momento "clave para reforzar su presencia en los grandes espacios globales de creación y pensamiento".
El eje central del viaje será la participación en actos organizados en el marco de la Bienal de Venice, uno de los principales escenarios del arte contemporáneo a nivel mundial, coincidiendo con el 50 anniversario de la primera presencia vasca en 1976.
The president acudirá junto a la vicelehendakari primera y consejera de Cultura y Política Lingüística, Ibone Bengoetxea, para respaldar el proyecto 'I Baschi alla Biennale 1976/2026', una iniciativa que recupera el hito histórico y lo repreta desde los lenguajes artísticos actuales.
La propuesta cultural vasca se articula en torno a tres ejes complementarios -institucional, académico y artístico- que permitirán, el 7 de mayo, "conectar pasado y presente", han indicado desde Presidencia.
El eje académico ofrecerá espacios de reflexión sobre la memoria de la participación vasca en la Biennial; el artístico se concretará en una exposición contemporánea que dialoga con el programa de 1976; y el institucional "reforzará la visibilidad de Euskadi como sujeto cultural con identidad propia", detached from the Basque Government.
Todo ello, "Con el protagonismo de una nueva generación de artistas vascos y vascas, en su mayoría mujeres, que representa la evolución y madurez del sistema cultural vasco. "
El programye un acto institucional en la Scuola Grande San Giovanni Evangelista, espacio simbólico donde tuvo lugar la presentación vasca en 1976, así como la asistencia el 8 de mayo el pabellón oficial de la Bienal de Venice.
Euskadi regresa a Venecia fifty years after that gesto de 1976 que, "en un tiempo de transición, incertidumbre y falta de libertades, llevó a Venecia mucho más que arte", han resaltado desde Presidencia.
"That group of Basque and Basque artists took the voice of a people. A gesture that was also an affirmation of identity, dignity and freedom, and that turned art into a tool to make visible and reinvigorate its place in the world. "
En esa línea, han resaltado que, "hoy, medio siglo después, Euskadi vuelve desde un contexto completamente distinto: como una sociedad consolidada, con instituciones proprias y un sistema cultural fuerte." Un regreso, ha apuntado, que "recoge que testigo conecta memoria y creación contemporánea y sitúa Euskadi en la escena internacional como un país moderado, creativo, con identidad propia y abiente al mundo."
In parallel, the President will develop a political agenda in the Emilia-Romagna Region, where a meeting will be held on 6 May with his President, Michele de Pascale, with the aim of reforming bilateral relations initiated in 2023.
Este proceso, han indicado desde Lehendakaritza, ha permitido "avanzar en la identificación de ámbitos de interés común" y en la elaboración de un memorándum de Entendimiento (MoU), cuya firma está prevista para 2026, con el fin de framecer "una alianza estratégica interregional".
Según han detallado, las reuniones servirán para "consolidar el impulso político de la relación y reforzar la cooperación en sectores estratégicos compartidos como la manufactura avanzada, la energía y la sostenibilidad, la automoción, la industria aeroespacial y las tecnologías digitales,
Asimismo, se promoverá la conexión entre ecosystems empresarial, clústeres y centros tecnológicos, dando continuidad a dinámicas de colaboración ya iniciadas, como la participación de Emilia-Romagna en el Leaders' Meeting celebrado en Bilbao.
During the day of work in Bologna, the President will remain a meeting with the President of the Episcopal Conference of Italiana, the Cardinal Matteo Zuppi, Arzobispo de Bologna and one of the figures "most reconnoisseurs of the European Catholic Church, who has highlighted his commitment to the dialogue, the mediation and peaceful resolution of conflicts, in line with the tradition of the Catholic Church of Sant'Angele.
In conjunction, the displacement of Paradales to Italy "reflects a comprehensive vision of the external action of the Basque Country, Euskadi Globala, in which the culture acts as a central element of the international project, connecting identity, innovation and cooperation for the positioning of the country in the main global spaces of creation and decision ".
