Javier Velaza in conversation with Jesús García Calero

Loewe Prize 2024

Segovia 2025, 

Javier Velaza, the winner of the 37th edition of the Loewe Poetry Prize for his work Las ignorancias (The Ignorances), explores the consciously ignorant nature of humans and attempts to construct an ethical and aesthetic commitment from there. As Jaime Siles has written, "this book overflows with classical and vital wisdom, bringing the value and meaning of the everyday into focus." He will have a conversation about his influences and career with Jesús García Calero, director of ABC Cultural.

At the end of the event, the author will sign copies of his books
