ARTEZ

Artez (Revista de las Artes Escénicas) is a Spanish monthly performing-arts publication founded in 1996 in Elorrio and headquartered in Bilbao. It is edited by Artezblai, the project that also runs the Asociación Cultural Artez Blai Kultur Elkartea, a virtual bookshop and the Portal de las Artes Escénicas. The magazine reports on stage premieres across Spain, on state theatre festivals and on the main festivals of the Ibero-American sphere, and it carries interviews and opinion columns by regular contributors such as Alfonso Sastre and Jorge Dubatti, and, until 2009, Ricard Salvat. Its director is Carlos Gil Zamora. Beyond the monthly magazine, Artezblai publishes books and the Cuadernos Escénicos de San Francisco, both available through the website's virtual bookshop and the performing-arts portal. Since 2009 the project has also promoted the Premio Internacional Artez Blai de Investigación sobre las Artes Escénicas, an international research prize on the performing arts. Some issues of Artez include special supplements devoted to specific festivals, and since 2009 regional supplements, Infoartez Castilla y León and Infoartez Euskal Herria, have been published. The magazine's identifying image is a slipper with stiletto heels, tied to the slogan 'lo único imprescindible para ir de su casa al teatro' ('the only indispensable thing for going from home to the theatre'). Artez is financed through copy sales, subscriptions, advertising and public subsidies. Its print run is 5,000 copies, while the Infoartez supplements add 14,000 copies distributed monthly. The publication is private and active, and its online home, artezblai.com, presents itself as 'El Periódico de las Artes Escénicas', carrying news of premieres, festivals and calls for entries.
