Students from Elías Querejeta Zine Eskola take part in the research for the exhibition “The Harun Farocki Effect” at Kutxa Fundazioa Kubo
The documentation from the German filmmaker's archive has been researched, catalogued and selected by students from the master's programmes in Film Preservation Studies and Film Curating Studies. Curated by Antje Ehmann and Carles Guerra, the exhibition is open from 19 June to 27 September 2026. This work is part of a collaboration between Kutxa Fundazioa and EQZE.
Students from Elías Querejeta Zine Eskola (EQZE) are taking part in the exhibition “The Harun Farocki Effect”(19 June–27 September), which Kutxa Fundazioa will open on 19 June at the Kutxa Fundazioa Kubo Hall. The documentation from Harun Farocki's archive that structures the exhibition has been researched and selected by students from the school's master's programmes in Film Preservation Studies and Film Curating Studies, together with the exhibition's curators, Antje Ehmann and Carles Guerra.
"The Harun Farocki Effect" traces the movement of the German filmmaker's work (1944–2014) from the cinema to the space of the museum, bringing together installations and films that span from his early militant works of the 1960s —Two Paths (1966), The Words of the Chairman (1967), Inextinguishable Fire (1969)— to his investigations into operational images and the automation of labour, such as Eye/Machine I-III (2000–2003), Counter-Music (2004) and Workers Leaving the Factory in Eleven Decades (2006).
The work jointly developed by Kutxa Fundazioa and Elías Querejeta Zine Eskola will culminate in a public event on Thursday 10 September 2026, in which the school's students will, alongside the curators, explain the research process carried out for the exhibition's archive. This work forms part of a course-workshop taught by Carles Guerra at EQZE, with sessions held in the Kubo Hall itself, drawing on materials from Farocki's archive.
The working groups were made up of Victoria Irene Barco, Guillermo Biedma Pérez, Beatriz Bizarro Rodrigues, Pablo Salvador Boido, Javier Esteban Navarro, Helena Flò Monteagudo, Carmina Frankel, Ane García Sánchez, Leonor Guerra, Manuel Hevia Carballido, Alexandre Kröner Moreira, Nita Kruger Hidalgo, Susel Legón, Clara Lezama, Yerai Martínez Velasco, Carolina Monti, Palmira Sabaté and Delfina Vázquez, students from EQZE's master's programmes in Film Preservation Studies and Film Curating Studies.
