The encounters are based on seven works, some of which are included in the exhibition while others are part of its conceptual framework. In each encounter, artists and art specialists gather together around an artwork.<\/p>\n<p>The encounters in\u00a0<em>Artworks for\u2026\u00a0<\/em>coalesce around the idea of how to imagine the museum through the objects it holds \u2013 the particular museum hosting\u00a0<em>After 1968<\/em>, with its specific nature and history; and the museum in general, as an institution that creates a narrative of the present by storing objects from the past for the future.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Venue: Auditorium, Bilbao Fine Arts Museum.<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>Time: 7 pm.<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>Entry free of charge, limited seating. Invitations available at the museum ticket office from the Monday before each session.<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The series <em>Risveglio. Despertar en el museo <\/em>(Risveglio. <\/strong><strong>Waking Up in the Museum) (1990-2018) by Mikel Eskauriaza will be exhibited in the auditorium entrance hall from 26 March \u2013 1 April.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>About the artwork<br \/>\n<\/strong>In 1903, Nemesio Mogrobejo made <em>Risveglio<\/em>, one of the bronze sculptures from his stay in Rome on a scholarship from the Bizkaia Regional Government. The artist started his training in Paris, where he was influenced by Auguste Rodin and came to know the new artistic tendencies. He was to fall ill soon after, and passed away in 1910 at the age of thirty-five. Four years later, in 1914, <em>Risveglio <\/em>was presented at the recently opened Bilbao Fine Arts Museum at what was previously the Hospital Civil, Atxuri.<\/p>\n<p>A black and white photograph from 1930 shows one of the rooms of the museum at its first location. In the background is a museum guard wearing a uniform and peaked cap and leaning against a doorjamb. In the middle of the room, whose walls are crammed with paintings, one on top of the other, with hardly any free space, can be seen <em>Risveglio, <\/em>the rounded bulk of a sculpture of a naked youth, raising his arm and cupping his head in his hand in a gesture that denotes a dreamy state or, maybe, as the title indicates, that he is stretching sleepily.<\/p>\n<p>Another black and white photograph from the museum. This one is from 1949, and shows the main hall of the museum\u2019s current location in the Do\u00f1a Casilda Park. Framed against a piece of wall under the monumental staircase is a group of three sculptures. In the middle is <em>La hetaira <\/em>by Mois\u00e9s de Huerta, and next to it is <em>Risveglio. <\/em>On the other side is <em>Eva <\/em>(1904), another of the works made by Mogrobejo during his time in Italy. Today, copies of the two sculptures by Mogrobejo occupy the niches by the old entrance to the museum.<\/p>\n<p>Another black and white photograph of <em>Risveglio. <\/em>This one is from 1990. The naked youth, just waking up, has a black leather jacket hanging over one shoulder. This irreverent, spontaneous addition to the sculpture turns the dreamy modern piece into a young New Romantic. At his feet, on the marble floor, are three sleeping bags, some books, two pairs of shoes and a radio cassette player.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mikel Eskauriaza<\/strong>\u00a0(Bilbao, 1969) is an artist, who studied Fine Art at the University of the Basque Country, EHU\/UPV (1987-1992), and Photography at the International Center of Photography, New York (2000-2002). He has worked with photography and the landscape genre since the nineties. Eskauriaza uses photography as a tool for observation, for documenting and interpreting phenomena and processes affecting land, and their physical, political, economic and symbolic consequences. Recent projects include <em>A Methodology for the Critical Analysis of Land<\/em>\u00a0(in progress since 2000);\u00a0<em>BAPORAK. <\/em><em>La flota atunera vasca en el oc\u00e9ano \u00cdndico\u00a0<\/em>(2013-2017); and\u00a0<em>Deusto Block # 26<\/em>\u00a0(2010).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Asier Mendizabal<\/strong> (Ordizia, 1973) Artist whose work focuses on relationships between form, discourse and ideology.
