The Pamplona Meetings were a festival of avant-garde art, music, performance, experimental film and visual poetry, held in the capital of Navarre between June 26 and July 3, 1972. Sponsored by Grupo Huarte, under the direction of the ALEA group and in particular the composer Luis de Pablo and the artist José Luis Alexanco, it brought together more than three hundred first-class national and international artists in Pamplona. They are considered a benchmark for experimental art in Spain, both for the quality of the works presented and the artists who took part, as well as for their uniqueness in the cultural context of Franco's regime, in the setting of a provincial capital with a conservative and Catholic tradition, and in the atmosphere marked by the political and social tensions of the last years of the dictatorship. Manuel Borja-Villel, director of the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, defined the Encuentros as "the most important event of the second half of the 20th century in Spain." The Huarte family, originally from Pamplona and owners of one of the most important contracting companies in Spain between the 1930s and 1970s, in particular, Juan Huarte Beaumont promoted Basque architecture and art, establishing a very close relationship with Sáenz de Oiza and Jorge Oteiza, as well as other figures close to the two such as Daniel Fulluando, Pablo Palazuelo or Pedro Manterola. The festival took place at a time of political conflict in Spain and the Basque Country Text in Spanish, French, English, German and Italian. Original wrappers. The covers with sings of wear, otherwise in Very good condition.
