The San Sebastian campus of the University of Deusto will host on March 12 the opening of the virtual exhibition “extraORDINARY WOMEN: Women and work in Gipuzkoa”, a tribute to the role of women in the economic development of our territory. The exhibition is part of the RE-WIRING, research program, funded by the European Union, which aims to reverse gender inequalities.

The exhibition brings together pieces of great artisanal or artistic value from Gordailua, San Telmo Museoa and Kutxa Fundazioa that tell us about the relationship of women with work objects, especially during the industrialization of our territory. Likewise, the artist Irati Cano exhibits an audiovisual work commissioned for this exhibition that proposes a reflection on the false dichotomies between the analogical and the digital, the reproductive and the productive, the masculine and the feminine.

In this exhibition will participate:
– Xabier Riezu, San Sebastian campus’ vice rector and Language Policy of the University of Deusto.
– Ainara Martin, Curator of the exhibition and digital content.
– Miren Gutiérrez, Director of the exhibition.
– Lorena Fernandez, Director of Digital Identity of Deusto University and Re-Wiring communication.
– Dolores Morondo, Principal Researcher at Re-Wiring Technologies.
