The corsairs of Baiona

Erakusketa

Once again this year, and thanks to their relationship with the Beart Association of Bergara, Baionako Kortsarioak are exhibiting their works in Bergara. This year, however, they will have a new location: the Laboratorium Museum. The exhibition will be in Bergara from 13 May to 8 June.

From the banks of the Errobi and the Adour, Alain, Andre, Claude, Eric, Julia, Mica and Pat shows us their creations made in timps of pandemic in Bergara. They are works that are already very familiar to us because we are getting to know the artist and his work better and better.

In these difficult times we have lived through, art shows us its kindest face and serves as a healing tool, a refuge where we can express what we see and experience that we can hardly express in any other way.

Baiona Bergara, Bergara Baiona, a round trip but it goes much further, with art we participate in a journey to emotional, psychological and spiritual freedom. Let's enjoy this exhibition that 'Baionako Kortsarioak' have prepared with so much attention.

Opening

Beart alkartearekin elkarlanean egin dugun erakusketa honen inaugurazioa maiatzaren 13an izan genuen.

The Mayor Gorka Artola welcomed the artists of the 'Galerie de Corsaires' of Baiona, where the Deputy Mayor Ainhoa Lete, the head of the Laboratorium Museoa Rosa Errazkin, the president of Beart Karlos Galarraga and the head of the Association 'Les Corsaires' André Goupille were also present. 

The mayor highlighted the social character of the museum. He said that it is not only linked to science and that it has recently hosted exhibitions with a wide variety of themes. "It is a social museum and its contribution, like society, is diverse and varied. This is also attested to by the exhibitions it hosts".

The mayor also referred to the presence of art in Bergara and the great work carried out by Beart in this field.

"Art has shown us its most pleasant side in these difficult times we have lived through and has helped us to heal. Art is a refuge that allows us to express what we see and what we experience, because otherwise it would be difficult for us to express all this", says Karlos Glarraga, president of the Beart Association.

Rosa Errazkin, head of the Laboratorium Museoa, also highlighted the idea of collaboration.

'Galerie de Corsaires' is a non-profit association that collaborates with the City Council of Baiona. It is located in the heart of Baiona Ttipia, near the Basque Museum and Bonnat-Helleu, and offers artists from the Basque Country and the Southwest of France the possibility to exhibit their works free of charge. It occasionally organises exhibitions in connection with local events such as the Ham Fair, Diversity Week, Museum Night and Blue Week (painting competition for seniors).

It also engages with artists' collectives abroad to collaborate and maintain relationships. The 'Galerie des Corsaires' participates in open-air exhibitions, as well as organising an annual open-air event such as 'Remp' Arts'.

They welcome their presence in Bergara and also their new location for the exhibition.

Taula periodikoa 2022: unibertsoa osatzen duten elementuak

Erakusketa

2019/2020an, museoak anbizio handiko erakusketa egin zuen Taula Periodikoari buruz, asmakuntzaren urteurrenarekin batera. Erakusketa horretan, bisitariek gure mudua osatzen duten osagai kimikoak eta horien antolaketa ezagutu dezakete, elementu kimikoek gizakiarekin eta naturarekin daukaten harremana ikasten dute, eta kimikarien aurkikuntzen historiaz jabetu daitezke ere.

Aurten erakusketa hori berreskuratu dugu, eta, aipatutakoaz gain, panelei eta jolas didaktikoei esker, Dimitri Ivanovich Mendeleiev zientzialari errusiarrak, 1869an, gaur egun erabiltzen dugun taula periodikoa sortu zuela gogoratuko dugu. Taula Periodikoaren asmakuntzak izan duen garrantzia azpimarratzen dugu, eta, aldi berean, Elhuyar anaiak omentzen ditugu, 1783an Wolframa isolatu baitzuten, 1778an Real Seminario Patriótico Bascongadoko elkarteak Bergaran sortutako Laboratorium Chemicum-ean.

 

1. Aretoa: Taula periodikoaren bilakaera

Taula periodikoaren sorrera zientziaren historiako jazoera adierazgarrietako bat da. Lehendabiziko aretoan taula periodikoa dago erakusgai modu interaktiboan. Hala, haren funtzioa eta haren bilakaera azaltzen dira egun duen konfiguraiora iritsi arte. Gainera, hura osatzen duten elementu kimiko bakoitzaren ezaugarraik ageri dira.

2. Aretoa: Wolframaren aurkikuntza eta Elhuyar anaiak

Ikerketa zientifikoak gertaera, datu, erlazio edo lege berriak ematea proposatzen du. Bergaran Elhuyar anaiek wolframio isolatzea lortu zuten 1783. urtean metodo zientifiko bat erabiliz. Bigarren eremu honetan wolframioaren aurkikuntza eta Bergarak aurkikuntza horretan izandako garrantzia jorratzen dira.

3. Aretoa: Oparotasunaren taula

Azken areto honetan ezagutuko dugu Kimikako Europako Elkarteak (EuChemS) sortu eta Europako Parlamentuan 2019an aurkeztutako Oparotasunaren Taula. Taula periodiko horretan elementu kimiko naturalak jasotzen dira eta horietako bakoitza Lurrean oparoa ala urria den islatzen da. Oparotasunaren taula lagungarri izango zaigu zein baliabide babestu behar ditugun ulertzeko, izan ere, datozen urteetan horien hornidura arrisku larrian dago.

Green Hydrogen

Erakusketa

GREEN HYDROGEN; A solution to climate change?

The current energy system is based on the use of fossil fuels. From oil and natural gas we get methane to heat our homes and generate electricity, petrol and diesel to power our cars, and paraffin for planes and ships. But the use of fossil fuels has twho fundamental problems: we depend on other countries to buy them (at the price they want) and they emit CO2 in their use (which favours climate change). This is why we are looking for alternative energy sources that allow us to be energy independent and environmentally sustainable, such as renewable energies and hydrogen.

This exhibition aims to answer many questions related to green hydrogen: what is it, how is it produced, is it sustainable? We hope it will be of interest to you and will help you to understand this future world that is getting closer and closer.

Erakusketa

IN THE AROZTEGI HALL:

Tuesday to Friday: 18:00-20:30
Saturdays: 12:00-14:00 eta 18:00-20:30
Sundays and public holidays: 12:00-14:00

The exhibition 'Ilustraciencia 7' is a selection of 40 works by participants in the sevents edition of the International Award for Scientific and Nature Illustration organised by the National Museum of Natural Sciences of Madrid (MNCN-CSIC) and the Catalan Association of Scientific Communication. The initiative also has the collaboration of the Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology (FECYT) and the 'La Caixa' Foundation.

The travelling exhibition shows visitors the work of professionals in scientific and naturalist illustration. An animal, a mineral or the reconstruction of a landscape from millions of years ago can be represented by means of an illustration, using different techniques, but always with scientific rigour.

In 2019, 500 works were submitted to the competition, of which the professional jury selected 40 for this travelling exhibition. Two students from the UPV/EHU master's degree in Scientific Illustration, in which the Laboratorium Museum collaborates, were selected: Amaia Torres and Mikel Rodríguez.

Women of cotton. Life stories

Erakusketa

 

The aim of the exhibition Women of Cotton is to pay tribute to women workers, in this case those who worked at Algodonera San Antonio. Through various artistic disciplines (illustrations, poetry, photographs, literature, fashion...) the life stories of these women will be narrated, explaining everything they lived through.

This project, created in Andoain, was initially born as a fashion project, but gradually acquired a cultural tone. In 1857-1965 Andoain had a factory called Algodonera Guipuzcoana. The 90% of the workers were women. With the aim of honouring and strengthening all these women, the exhibition Women of Cotton was created. This exhibition took place from 3 to 20 march at the Bastero Cultural Centre. After the closure of the textile factory in Andoain, many of the women who worked there moved to Bergara to work, so the second stop of this project was Bergara.

The exhibition is made up of different "totems", which are displayed in the image, and it shows poetry, photographs, illustrations... The totem poles in Andoain are white, while those in Bergara are blue, referring to the colour of the table.

The women of cotton is a sustainable exhibition. The "totem poles" are made of wood and fabric from the Irizar factory. On the other hand, the fabrics of the Andoain section are those given to us by a woman. We think they are from Algodón de Andoain. On the other hand, the tubes that hang the fabrics are from the shop "Muchas telas" in San Sebastian. In this exhibition the only new objects are the aluminium tubes. 

As we have already mentioned, this exhibition tells the life stories of the women who worked in the "Algodonera San Antonio" workshop. For this purpose we have met with 8 women recalling the past moments. Many exhibition totems carry a QR code with the voices and stories of the women. In addition, the exhibition will have several small catalogues with all the stories.


Guided tours

Although the exhibition is well understood in itself (there will be sufficient documentation), guided tours will be organised in Basque and Spanish. In these visits, as well as explaining the exhibition, various anecdotes and little stories will be told.

The dates are:

  • 7 July, Wednesday, 12:00
  • 21 July, Wednesday, 12:00
  • 28 July, Wednesday, 12:00
  • 4 August, Wednesday, 12:00
  • 25 August, Wednesday, 12:00/18:00
  • 1 September, Wednesday, 12:00/18:00

* Bisita gidatu guztiak dagoeneko egin dira.

 

Educational Units

This project offers the didactic unit "Ehun lantegiak Bergaran", different life stories and adds documentation to it. The didactic unit was previously worked on by the departments of Municipal Archives, Equaly and Youth and Education and Participation of the Bergara Town Council, and can be downloaded at https://sites.google.com/view/ehunlantegiakbergaran

 

Conferences

The speed of fashion is causing the progressive loss of jobs of yesteryear, like the textiles. With the aim of highlighting the work that these women did and promoting a sustainable life (we must bear in mind that these women lived in a totally sustainable way: they exchanged clothes among themselves, repaired the fabrics over and over again...) we propose different talks.

Lorenzo Ascasibar. Retrospective of a sculptor.

Erakusketa

The Laboratorium has prepareed an exhibition on the sculptor Lorenzo Ascasibar, which can be seen in the Aroztegi hall until 20 June. This exhibition coincides with the tribute that the City Council will pay to this artist who was trained in Bergara on 8 June, and with the book written by Miguel Ángel Elkoroberezibar: Lorenzo Ascasibar: Eskultore baten testigantza. Testimony of a sculptor.

Is considered to be one of the greatest exponents of Basque figurative sculpture in the second half of the 20th century, but he still largely unknown to the general public. Lorenzo Ascasibar, author of more than 700 works on a vide range of themes, treatments and materials, can be considered one of the sculptors with the most precise detail and mastery of figurative technigue. Ascasibar is the last of the classics of the era of Higinio Basterra, Ricardo Iñurria, Joaquín Lucarini, Nemesio Mogrobejo, among others.

In this exhibition we have brought together works from throughout his artistic career, produced in various formats and materials, as well as photographs of part of his public work in the United States. In short, an anthological compendium of his fruitful production.

The inauguration took place on 28 May in the Aroztegin hall in Bergara.

In addition, a working group of people from Bergara who have participated in this initiative since its inception, offers guided tours of the church of San Pedro to get to know the Pietà by Lorenzo Askasibar. On Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays there will be someone at the church to give explanations to visitors. The calendar can be consulted by calling the Aroztegi room.

30 unforgettable women

Erakusketa

Bergara Town Council has presented the programme organised for International Women's Day at the Laboratorium Museum, which includes this new exhibition which will be open from 4 March till 30 May.

At the presentation, Rosa Errazkin, director of the Laboratorium, highlighted that "this is more than an exhibition of watercolours. It coincides with the character of the Laboratorium Museum, which is not just a museum, but is based on sustainability and novelty, as it aspires to be a driving force for development. And in this sense, we want to be agents in making visible the women who have made significant contributions to our history".

THE ORIGIN OF THE EXHIBITION

The origin of this exhibition is in a book, according to the director of Emakunde, Izaskun Landaida. "When Emakunde turned 30, we wanted to do something special and we thought of recovering the memory of 30 women from our town and collecting it in a book. To do this, the artist Elena Ciordia produced 30 watercolours". The exhibition has been made with the watercolours collected in the book.


The women who appear in the watercolours are very diverse: from scientists, musicians, painters, bertsolaris, politicians, writers, photographers, teachers, sportswomen... They are women who have made important contributions to the history of our country, "but our intention has not been to pay tribute to women who have only stood out in the public sphere. With this exhibition, as well as praising the work of these 30 women, we want to highlight and pay tribute to all those women who have worked in other less public and less spectacular fields. Because they have done work that is absolutely necessary and fundamental for our society and have not received the public recognition they deserve", said the director of Emakunde. 

COLLECTING OTHER NAMES

The exhibition also proposes to collect names of other women. There is a panel where visitors can include names, photos and stories of other unforgettable women. This collection of names will take place not only in the exhibition, but also through social networks, with the hashtag #emakumeahaztezinak #mujeresinolvidables

Something about the exhibition

Thanks to the stone inscriptions we can get to know something about the people who lived in the first centuries of our era.

A significant number of these documents have been discovered in Tierras Altas de Soria. Written in Latin, they contain, however, Latin personal names, in Celtic and in an ancient form of Basque.

Among the 40 stelae and tombstones found in Tierras Altas from the first to the third centuries, we have gathered six: a representative sample. For the history of the Basque language, that of the Highlands of Soria is undoubtedly a fundamental set, the largest in volume of Basque-Aquitan anthroponymy that can be found south of the Pyrenees.


HIGHLANDS OF SORIA

Tierras Altas or "La Sierra", as it is known by its inhabitants, is located in the northeast of Soria and belongs to the Ebro basin. It is a land of mountains and ravines, which during the Iron Age belonged to the Celtiberian cultural environment. At the end of this stage, during the Romanization, it was incorporated into the province of Citerior Tarraconense, with its capital in Tarraco (Tarragona).

THE INSCRIPTION WORKSHOP

In all the cities and in some rural areas there were inscription workshops. The one in the Highlands specialized in funerary stelae during the 1st and 2nd centuries. This workshop combined local traditions and fashions imported from Rome with a very defined style and repetitive schemes.

These schemes and the elements that compose them have a meaning and a 'raison d'être', something you will discover in this exhibition.

THE PEOPLE OF THE STELAE

The roots of the people of the territory are shown through their indigenous names. Until a little more than a decade ago they were linked to the Iberian sphere. Since then they have been linked to another linguistic space, that of the Basque-Aquitan language, a language or set of languages, ancestor of the current Basque language.

AN EXHIBITION WITH HISTORY

This exhibition was in Santa Cruz de Yanguas, municipality of Tierras Altas in 2019. Now, a representation of it can be visited for two months in Bergara.

PERIODIC TABLE: The elements that make up the Universe

Erakusketa

The United Nations General Assembly has proclaimed 2019 as the International year of the Periodic Table (#IYPT2019). This year marks the 150th anniversary of the periodic table created by Russian scientist Dimitri Ivanovich Mendeleev in 1869. In this latest version of the table the elements are ordered according to the characteristics of their atoms.  

In this exhibition, we show visitors  the importance of the invention of the periodic table and pay tribute to the Elhuyar brothers, who in 1783, managed to isolate tungsten in the facilities of the Chemical Laboratory created in 1778 associated with Seminario Patriótico Bascongado de Bergara.
 

Room 1: Evolution of the Periodic Table

The creation of the periodic table is one of the most representative milestones in the history of science. The first room presents the periodic table in interactive format, its function and its evolution to its current configuration and the characteristics of each of the chemical elements that compose it.


Room 2: Discovery of tungsten and the Elhuyar Brothers

Scientific research aims to provide new facts, data, relationships or laws. In Bergara, it was the Elhuyar brothers who, throudh a scientific method, succeeded in isolating tungsten in 1783. This second space is dedicated to the discovery of wolfram and the importance of Bergara in this discovery.

Room 3: The Abundance Table

In the last room we will learn about the Abundance Table, created by the European Chemical Society (EuChemS) and presented to the European Parliament in 2019. This periodic table collects the natural chemical elements and represents the abundance or scarcity of each of them on Earth. The abundance table will help us to understand which resources we must protect, as they are at serious risk of supply in the coming years.

Biribilak mendietan erakusketaren eskuorria azala

Biribilak mendietan

Erakusketa

2019ko maiatzaren 31an, inauguratu zen 'Biribilak mendietan. Seles, kortak, saroiak' Laboratorium Museoan.

Erakusketa hau '750 urte eta aurrera, Bergarako hiribilduaren aurretik' programaren barruan kokatu zen. Egilea Euskal Herriko Museoa izan zen, Bizkaiko Foru Aldundiak laguntzarekin, eta honen helburua izan zen kortek Euskal Herriko nekazaritzan izan duten garrantzia ezagutzera ematea. Jarduera hau Erdi Arotik datorren praktika horren gaineko ikerketa baten emaitza izan zen, hain zuzen ere, Euskal Herriko mendietan biribil formakoak diren eta tamaina handiko harri baten inguruan trazatu diren lursail berezi horiek aztertu zituena.

Bergarako kasuan, udalerriko XVIII. mendeko dokumentu garrantzitsuak gehitu zitzaizkien erakusketari. Agiri horietan azaltzen da saroeien jatorria, egitura, neurketa moduak eta mugarriak; bai eta horien tipologia, erabilera anitzak, kokapena eta historian izan duten garapena, besteak beste. Muestrak jasota ditu XVII eta XVIII. mendeetako krokis originalak, biribilei buruzko antzinako testu eta dokumentuak, kortarri edo haustarri deritzoten garaiko mugarriak eta abar. Hori guztiaz gain, airetiko argazki, kartografia, ikus-entzunezko eta panel askok hornitzen dute esposizioa.
