Thanks to this artist exchange programme, Isasi will develop her project at Estudio Carlos Garaicoa (Havana) over the course of 6 weeks, in collaboration with the ‘Artista x Artista’ programme, and at Az for two additional months.
This programme promotes the exchange of artistic processes that cultivate ongoing professional relationships and open the doors to exchange and mutual knowledge between artists and cultural centres.
The project was selected by a jury composed of Lucía Agirre, curator at the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao; Lourdes Fernández, director of Azkuna Zentroa; and Carlos Garaicoa, representative and director of ´Artist x Artist´.
