Espill de Festa. The Corpus

The exhibition explains the cultural importance of what was the most important festival in the Valencian territory (the Corpus Christi).

Through the exhibition, objects from the L'ETNO clothing collection (Casa Insa) are presented in dialogue with others that are part of the festival in different valencian towns. The main objectives of the project are:

  • To value the work of L'ETNO in the recovery, conservation and restoration of the Casa Insa clothing collection.
  • Help the museum visitor understanding how the Corpus Christi festival was a "performance" in which the whole society participated.
  • To analyze the iconography that has configured one of the main Valencian traditions.

 

Between 2 October and 13 November there will be guided tours on Sundays at 11:30 a.m. by the exhibition curators. Languages: Spanish and Valencian.
