The formula that combines explanations about the Romanesque churches of the Val d’Aran with classical music concerts, the already consolidated Romanic Musicau, returns this Easter Week of 2018 to bring visitors closer to the history of Aran’s heritage and show the evolution of the monuments of the Valley linked to that of its customs and traditions.
The fashion of the 18th, 19th and early 20th centuries arrived in the Val d’Aran with the help of the Lleida and Aran Network of Land Museums, with “Vestir Era Mòda”. This is a travelling exhibition that includes some sixty pieces of clothing from the province of Lleida. The wardrobe of the population shows the social and economic change that took place in Europe at that time.
In Vestir era Mòda you can see everything from everyday clothes to elegant or ceremonial dresses, as well as accessories such as shoes, hats, parasols and handbags. These garments have survived to the present day thanks to the families who have saved them as precious assets, who have passed from generation to generation and who have finally ceded them for their conservation and diffusion to the territorial museums.
The exhibition is complemented by clothing, photographs and portraits from private collections in the Val d’Aran. It is worth mentioning a rich baptismal costume from the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries made of three pieces (dress, cloak and cap) from the recently restored collection of the Val d’Aran Museum.
The travelling exhibition, which arrives at its final destination in the Val d’Aran, can be visited from 16 March to 5 May 2018, from Monday to Saturday from 5 pm to 8 pm in Sant Joan d’Arties. Admission is free of charge.

B*MAI Restaurant & ART hosts, since 6th March, the exhibition of paintings “Retrats”, a mixed technique on wood and canvas by Sònia Ramon Pinyol, a multifaceted artist from Sort, Pallars Sobirà (Lleida).
“My portraits are always part of a vital process, moments of life in which I see myself reflected. Often the support I choose is recycled wood that already has a history printed on each of its veins. Painting offers him a second life. In my work, painting and music often go hand in hand, for this reason each one of them is accompanied by a song (code QR), which specifies the meaning”.
OPENING: Wednesday 6 March at 18:00h with Aperitif B*MAI
Duration EXPO: from 6 March to 8 April
Expo schedule: from 8 to 12 and 18 to 24h

The Forum Square of Baqueira 1,500, will host from tomorrow the video installation “Expansión Cromática. La Naturaleza Intervenida”, by the Argentinean artist Laura Larocca, resident of the Val d’ Aran.
The exhibition opens on 22 February at 19h. Organized by B*MAI Restaurant & Art, it projects intervened images of the Val d’ Aran ecosystem on mountains built with reused materials. In this scenario, overlays, transparencies and cuts will be created. The public may participate free of charge.
Starting from an objective reality of a natural chromatic, the artist designs intervention strategies, with the intention of basically playing with colours; to achieve, through the journey, a stimulated motivation that provides the spectator with emotions, aimed at merging with the work, achieving a chromatic unity that encourages awareness of its origin and immediate reality in the environment.
“Expansión Cromática. La Naturaleza Intervenida”is sponsored by the Naut Aran City Council in collaboration with the Conselh Generau d’ Aran. The video installation will be accompanied by a small exhibition of the artist’s paintings and watercolours, with her interpretation of the local flora and fauna.
Laura Larocca’s work is composed of natural abstractions in painting, photography and installations. His works have won awards at the Salerno Biennial of Contemporary Art, and he exhibited in Argentina, Italy and Spain. He currently lives and works in Vielha.
