Eremuak Opens Call for 2026 Quadrennial Exhibition

Eremuak has announced an open call for its upcoming fourth Quadrennial Exhibition, set to take place in October 2026 at Guata Kultur Fabrika in Zalla-Aranguren, Spain. This initiative, which began in 2010, aims to discover contemporary art practices and encourage discussion. Past exhibitions have included "First Thought Best" (2014, Artium Museoa), "Bi/Dos/Two" (2018, Azkuna Zentroa-Alhóndiga Bilbao), and "Hamairu" (2022, Tabakalera). For the 2026 event, at least eight selected artists will enjoy a three-month residency from July to October, with access to the industrial facility and its surroundings. Participants will receive €1,500 and potential housing. The jury comprises Eremuak's technical committee—Iñaki Garmendia, Raúl Domínguez, Olatz Otalora—and external guest Chus Martínez, associate curator at TBA21 in Madrid. Artists will participate in a five-day workshop led by Leire Vergara and Snejanka Mihaylova from July 27–31. Applications, including a motivation letter, a recent work dossier (maximum 15 pages), and a CV, must be submitted by July 5, 2026. A publication related to the exhibition is expected in 2027.
