In a region with deeply-rooted traditions, such as Lea-Artibai, the artistic expression of its people is an extension of its most pure tradition.

Miguel Angel Lertxundi The greatest exponent of current sculpture is Miguel Angel Lertxundi. The artist's work permanently combines stone, metal and wood, with which he seeks to synthesize Nature's four elements in only three. His work has been shown in galleries worldwide, from the United States and Europe to Japan, and has won recognition from the most discerning international critics.

Felix Beristain Another great artist from this region is Felix Beristain, from Ondarroa. Considered one of the great masters of Basque realism, of marked personality, Beristain has the privilege of being one of the select group of best realist authors on the international painting scene.
Alvaro Casillas, a painter and sculptor from Markina, and Alberto Brasola, a landscape painter from Lekeitio, are also worthy of mention.

On another plane, it is important to highlight the support provided by the Town Councils of Etxabarria, Ondarroa and Lekeitio in promoting amateur artistic production by organising courses, outdoor art contests, and exhibitions in Town Hall rooms.
On the private level, it is worth mentioning the Lanart art gallery in Ondarroa, where exhibitions with works from the most representative artists of the Basque Country and regional art world are held.
