HEMENDIK

a coffee table book

“There are a thousand ways we can learn about a culture, but we don’t often consider stories behind those ‘things’ we take for granted. Highlighting 50 iconic objects from the Basque Country, this book uses stunning photography and fascinating stories to describe a world of innovation and creativity. Not only that but it’s compiled in a way that allows me to learn something new every time I open the book. I didn’t know I needed this.”

HEMENDIK (“from here” in Basque) is available in Basque/English, Basque/French, and Basque/Spanish.

*Here’s something else you need to know: The BEO is working with the organization that created this book to host a discussion about some of the stories behind the highlighted objects. It will be virtual, which means anyone from anywhere can join. Stay tuned as we iron out the details. In the meantime…
