Session.2
We shall set to sea in search of whales with Fermín Jiménez Landa and Enrique Franco (AMBAR). Saturday 20 July. from 15.15 to 20.00. Point of encounter in consonni (C/ Conde Mirasol 13, Bilbao).
As in the novel Moby Dick, it’s not about whales, but about the search for them. We might be lucky and we might not. Our companions are not spectators, they are fellow travellers and this is not a show. During the trip they tell us what whale fishing was like. As in Moby Dick, failure is in attendance, as a possibility.
More information and registration until 3 October by writing to montserrat@consonni.org.

The disappearance of the Dutch artist Bas Jan Ader in the ocean will be narrated as a ranchera song. In a chilled out atmosphere, gathered at the table, we will eat, drink and, between voyages, Napermex and other Basque-Mex ballads will be the space imbetween, catchy and lingering.
