New Darío Urzay exhibit at AC Museum

The multi-purpose space hosts the series ‘Shoot Strokes’, created by the Basque artist for the Guggenheim to celebrate the recent Copa final

AC Museoa presents "Shoot Strokes", a series created by artist Darío Urzay for the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao to celebrate the 2023/24 Copa del Rey Final.

In its original exhibition, the project consisted of several large-format pieces placed in different locations throughout Frank Gehry's building.

From the dozens of action photos, the artist chose 11, six of which form a large installation outside the musuem.

A seventh image was left unplaced and is now on display at San Mames as a background picture for the ‘Shoot Strokes’ series.

The artwork, on a different scale and in a new medium, together with a video, recalls those unforgettable days that concluded with Athletic winning a 25th Copa del Rey. The trophy won at La Cartuja forms part of this temporary exhibition.

This exhibition is possible thanks to the generosity of the Guggenheim Bilbao Museum and Darío Urzay.
