TEMPORARY EXHIBITIONS
An area open to innovative cultural proposals
Itsasmuseum regularly stages temporary exhibitions on maritime and other themes so as to provide a more dynamic programme and broaden the range of cultural events on offer.
Temporary exhibitions
The Construction of Bilbao’s Image around 1700
The exhibition explores the image of Bilbao around 1700 through European maps, atlases and travel books from the 16th to the 18th centuries.
Bilbao 1700. Four Perspectives.
Bilbao 1700. Four Perspectives offers a multifaceted interpretation of a single work, View of Bilbao (c. 1700), considered the oldest known painting of the city.
La Naval. A Forge of Titans.
An exhibition that revisits one of the most significant periods in Bizkaia's industrial history through the ships, the technological advances, the trades and the people who shaped the Sestao shipyard.
Cargueras. Work That Deserves Recognition.
An exhibition paying tribute to the women who, for centuries, loaded and unloaded goods in Bizkaia. Overlooked by history, their work was essential to the region's commercial and economic development.
Gabarra Athletic
The Gabarra Athletic (Barge Athletic) exhibition is a graphic testimony that invites you to relive, remember or discover the importance of a historic event, closely linked to our maritime and port history.
Guest work
Ondarroa
As part of the Guest Work programme organised in collaboration with the Bilbao Fine Arts Museum, the Itsasmuseum has presented the painting Ondarroa by artist Iñaki García Ergüin (Bilbao, 1934), which depicts a highly expressive view of the houses in the port of this coastal town.
