8 Ideas1 EDITION #15
GETXOPHOTO is an annual image festival that has been taking place in Getxo –near to Bilbao, Basque Country– for 15 years. A festival that is part of a cultural ecosystem with the aim of being more participatory, hybrid, committed and sustainable.
2 THEME: TO SHAREThe Festival will explore the new
meanings that the idea of sharing incorporates in a planetary context dominated by access to information, migratory flows and growing economic inequalities.
3 PUBLIC SPACEDealing with the increasing
homogenization and global privatization, GETXOPHOTO is characterized by the radical defense of public space as a meeting place, mutual recognition and as a field for experimentation, play and celebration.
4 HYBRID FESTIVALIn addition to photography, the
Festival takes in its programming multiple means of expression used by contemporary visual storytellers: virtual reality, cinema, digital projects or interactive installations, among others.
5 AUDIENCEGETXOPHOTO is committed
to a culture of proximity in which the citizens are the protagonists. The active involvement of the community and social return are also promoted through the local links (merchants, hoteliers or fans), helping to strengthen the social fabric.
6 DIGITAL PROGRAMMEFrom its transversal approach,
GETXOPHOTO has been expanding itself by embracing Internet as a space to develop visual culture. It carries out a specific online program that includes different approaches: augmented reality, podcasts, apps, memes, 3D models or live broadcasts, among other digital proposals.
7 ECOLOGICAL TRANSITIONThe Festival’s production and
design policy is guided by the idea of minimizing its environmental impact and becoming an even more sustainable initiative.
8 PARTICIPATORY PROGRAMMEThe Festival has an educational
and participatory programme made up of conversations, guided visits, presentations, interventions, screenings, workshops, night walks or movies.

The next edition will take place from 2 to 26 September and we will be celebrating: the Festival will be 15 years old in 2021. GETXOPHOTO was created in 2007 by the association Begihandi and its main objectives have remained the same since its inception: to propose a conversation with society on topics of general interest that affect us as citizens; recovering urban spaces for cultural uses; bringing closer and involving citizens and betting on the exploration of non-conventional formats, media and exhibition spaces (both physical and digital) with a careful international programming.
Over the years, the Festival has exhibited the work of more than 250 artists, many of them internationally renowned (Zanele Muholi, Martin Parr, Alessandra Sanguinetti, Cristina de Middel, Pieter Hugo, Paul Fusco, Simon Norfolk, Erik Kessels or Michael Wolf, among others) and others less well-known, whose potential was bet on at the time. Thousands and thousands of people have visited and participated in the Festival throughout its history.

06 ABOUT THE FESTIVAL
The programme is structured in three main areas: exhibitions, digital programme and participatory programme. With regard to exhibitions, GETXOPHOTO continues its commitment to public space and, as in previous editions, almost all of them are in the street, in the open air. There are twentytwo installations that revolve around the theme of this year’s edition: To Share.
GETXOPHOTO aspires to be an increasingly hybrid festival in which, in addition to photography, there is also space for video, installation, cinema, virtual reality or digital art. Since last year the presence on the Internet has been strengthened with the aim of using this online space not only as a means of communication or promotion, but as a space where part of the Festival’s programming takes place. For this reason, the digital programme contains a digital archive, podcasts, playlists, apps or design tools, among others.
The Festival is a platform for local artists and artists from all over the world to meet and share their experiences and knowledge. In this sense, each year we hold our international open call that opens the doors to artists from all over the world, laboratories as a part of the education programme, collaborations with cultural agents and institutions that allow strengthening the cultural ecosystem, meetings as a shared space for reflection on images and profession, or various activities as part of the participatory programme.
It is worth mentioning that, in order to reduce our environmental impact, for the second consecutive year we have developed a sustainability plan for which we have achieved the recognition of Sustainable Event granted by the Basque Government.
07 ARTISTIC DIRECTION & EXHIBITIONS
Born in Hondarribia, Jon Uriarte, curator of The Photographers’ Gallery in London, takes on his second edition as curator of GETXOPHOTO. He has selected twentytwo projects that make up the artistic programme, a programme that is very close to contemporary issues and whose theme is To Share. Therefore, the Festival explores the new meanings that the idea of sharing is currently incorporating in a planetary context dominated by access to information, migratory flows and, above all, growing economic inequalities. In this way, artists from diverse backgrounds and artistic fields will be in charge of addressing these issues from their multiple points of view.

Artistic Direction & Exhibitions
08 ARTISTIC DIRECTION & EXHIBITIONS
An example of this is the work Agonistes, by Iranian artist Hoda Afshar, who records the experiences of former government employees of Australian immigration, youth detention, disability care and other agencies who decided to speak out and draw attention to alleged irregularities and misconducts. They now suffer the consequences and describe the personal and professional ruin, the breakdown of friendships and family relationships, as well as the physical and mental anguish caused by the decision to come forward and publicly share these abuses and the reasons why they did so.
Probably one of the most moving works in this year’s edition is Recetario para la memoria. Las Rastreadoras del Fuerte is a search group that seeks to find and identify the bodies of enforced disappearances related to drug trafficking and organized crime in Mexico. Together with them, the photographer Zahara Gómez has created Recetario para la memoria, a book that collects recipes and photographs of the favorite dishes of several missing people, as well as the landscapes where these women carry out their searches.
Also from Latin America comes Warawar wawa, by River Claure. For years, the photographic representation of Bolivia, like that of the global South, has been limited to reductionist and folklorising Western narratives that influence the imaginary that its citizens project when they think of themselves. In Warawar wawa, River Claure questions the visual canons that were established through the foreign photographic gaze, based on a recontextualization of The Little Prince.
Bridges are Beautiful is a project by Marina Caneve on the Natura 2000 network, a network of ecological corridors promoted by the European Union and created to preserve fauna, flora and biodiversity. It is a transnational communication system that does not respond to the border policies of each state, but rather puts ecological logics first. In this work, Marina analyses the contradictory relations between the construction of infrastructures, policies and freedom of movement, and the preservation of the environment.

We can not ignore the penetration and impact of digitalisation in our lives and in the artistic sphere. In this sense, the Festival –which has always been committed to addressing contemporary challenges, experimentation and new formats– presents several projects whose backdrop is precisely the infl uence of digitalisation. Delivery orders, memes, WhatsApp groups, Instagram accounts and fi lters, among others, make their way into the most experimental edition.

Gallery.Delivery, a project devised by the German Sebastian Schmieg, is a group exhibition and performance that can be requested online, like ordering a pizza. The exhibition will be delivered by a rider in a backpack in the shape of a white cube to the address established in the order, where it will be installed for half an hour. For the occasion, MawatreS has curated the travelling exhibition with the work of eight artists from the Basque sphere.
In addition to online orders, the meme phenomenon is also creeping into programming. The French collective Disnovation.org presents Online Culture Wars, a large mural that shows a visual representation of the political and ideological struggles that take place online through hundreds of political memes that circulate daily on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Reddit, Gab and 4chan.
Now You See Me Moria is a collaborative project that denounces the consequences of European migration policies on the lives of refugees. In August 2020, Amir, an Afghan refugee, and Noemí, a Spanish graphic editor living in the Netherlands, began publishing images and testimonies about life in the Moria refugee camp (Lesbos Island, Greece) on the Instagram account @now_you_see_me_moria, which in a few months has gathered tens of thousands of followers and which works as a platform to denounce the precarious living conditions in this camp.
Another example of the digital projects that form part of this year’s programme is Alerta vecino!, an initiative of the Catalan artist Blanca Munt. This is an experimental online project created for Getxophoto 2021 that explores social dynamics in neighbourhood watch chats through a WhatsApp group.
Finally, an Instagram filter made especially for Getxophoto that deconfigures the user’s face. Made by students from the Elisava School of Design in Barcelona, the ANTI filter is designed to collectively experiment with the deconfiguration of each of our faces as opposed to the aesthetic patterns and lifestyles that are usually shared in Instagram stories every day.

On its 15th anniversary, the Festival wanted to pay special attention to the city that hosts it. Two projects carried out by Getxotarras (citizens of Getxo) and that have this city as the object of their work, will be exhibited in the next edition.
Begoña Salazar has spent much of her life creating and personalising handmade books based on photographs of the city that neighbours share with her. Once made, she delivers and shares these unique books in libraries, bars, shoe shops and other local businesses. Since she moved to Getxo more than 25 years ago, Begoña has created around 100 thematic publications on neighbourhoods, popular festivals and historical dates of the town. GETXOPHOTO has digitalised all these publications and they will be available in person and online so that they can be enjoyed and consulted.
The Festival also wants to acknowledge Getxoweb, a pioneering interactive map that, more than 10 years before Google Maps was created, the Agirregabiria de la Sen family created in 1996 to show Getxo to the friends that their daughter Leire had made studying English in England. Mikel Agirregabiria, his wife Carmen de la Sen, together with their children Leire and Aitor, walked more than 300 streets, took more than 15,000 photographs and programmed a website that explored the possibilities and problems of creating an interactive online map. At a time when the Internet had barely reached people’s homes, the page had a significant local and national impact on radio, newspapers and television. 25 years later, Getxoweb can still be visited and continues to bear witness to the architecture and urban planning of the municipality, as well as to the qualities and aesthetics of the technologies used in its creation. Most of the photographs, animations, icons and functionalities remain, offering a unique and essential cultural heritage to be preserved.

SFor the first time, GETXOPHOTO will also be available on Filmin. The Festival will have its own channel on this online platform, where it will show different films related to this year’s theme. In addition, cinema will also have its own physical space and for three days we will return to the Getxo Autocine to programme a film that will bring the film-loving public closer to the festival.
In addition to the classic Lock-in (conversations for reflection on images and the profession) with Duncan Forbes (V&A), Marta Ponsa (Jeu de Paume), Mirjam Kooiman (Foam) or Penelope Umbirco (artist), the programme of talks includes Hamaiketako (lunch in Basque), a space where participants can share an aperitif around a table with local photographer Ainhoa Resano and Erika Ede, photographer at the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao.
The extensive programme of guided tours in Basque and Spanish includes daytime and evening visits every weekend in September, given by a mediator who presents and contextualises the key themes of each exhibition.
GETXOPHOTO Por is another way to visit the Festival. Four guest artists will explain their personal point of view on their favourite exhibitions. For three consecutive Saturdays, the singer of Belako, Cris Lizarraga, the performer Yogurinha Borova and the bertsolaris (a kind of basque verse improvisers) Alaia Martin and Imanol Uria will offer these unique and unrepeatable tours.
The programme is complemented with a playlist, the popular exhibition in the shop windows in collaboration with the local Traders Association, or the educational programme to visit the Festival with the family, among others.
For the first year, the Festival is organising MAPS (; BFF - Best Friends Forever ;), a meeting between students from photography schools from all over Spain. More than 40 students from different schools in Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia, Alicante and Bilbao will meet in Getxo to get to know each other, share their work and experiences with professional agents from the sector. And as a novelty, one of the works presented will be chosen to form part of the GETXOPHOTO 2022 programme.
