Jesús Jáuregui (Bilbao, 1957) studied at the University of Fine Arts in Bilbao.
For more than fifteen years, he has maintained a close relationship of friendship, learning and collaboration with two recognised masters of international contemporary art: Jorge Oteiza and Nestor Basterretxea.
With the latter, he collaborated on a series of documentaries for the ETB2 television channel on the cultures of Pre-Columbian America. He also took part in the construction of the monument to the Basque shepherd, a competition in Reno, Nevada.
These relationships were of capital importance in a constructivist-oriented training, an aesthetic that would lay the fundamental creative foundation for the coming years.
Jesús Jáuregui has spent more than thirty years dedicated to plastic disciplines such as urban sculpture, large-scale oil painting, engraving, lithography, scenographic interventions in small experimental theatres, and in masters lectures on creativity, public staging and plastic treatments of large-scale formats in Fine Arts Universities and Colleges of Architects.
