With the aim of making Getxophoto an event increasingly aware of the environment, we have developed a sustainability plan and we have achieved the sustainable event recognition granted by Erronka Garbia – Basque Government. These are some of the initiatives we carry out:
▇Promoting the use of public transport
▇Promoting bicycle use
▇Prioritising the use of the train as a means of transport for invited guests
▇Signposting of nearby water sources
▇Reduction of printed materials and promotion of digital alternatives
▇Use of ecological inks in printing
▇Reuse of printed canvases (Recycling Project)
▇Green and socially responsible purchasing
▇Use of removable and reusable infrastructures
▇Promotion of open air leisure, interest in culture and family activities
Recycling
Reuse and transformation are the guiding watchwords for the recycling of the photographs after they have been exhibited. Parts of well-known authors’ photographs are transformed into original and unique pieces.
The photographs form Getxophoto 2025 are being given a new life thanks to Bokashi, a Bilbao based studio created for exploring and experimenting with the future of fashion
