Expo 'Artists of the Village' - the Presbytery



 You can't miss the Presbytery. Just walk up the medievale village of Gorbio and stop when you see this old olive oil jar.You enter by a narrow door and and will then find five or six white-washed rooms, each displaying art by talented local artists.

Of course occasionally the stunning views compete with the art,  as you see in the black and white photo.

Tomorrow - the art.

Vous ne pouvez pas manquer le presbytère. Il suffit de monter au village médiéval de Gorbio et de vous arrêtez quand vous voyez cette ancienne jarre à huile d'olive. Vous entrez par une porte étroite et ensuite  vous  trouvez cinq ou six pièces  blanchies à la chaux, chacune exposant les oeuvres des talentueux artistes locaux.

Bien sûr, à l'occasion, la vue imprenable rivalise avec l'art, comme vous le voyez dans la photo en noir et blanc.


Demain - les oeuvres.

  2. I agree with you, Jilly. This building is a must-see in Gorbio. Remember the "Chevet rengaine?" - or was it "Rengaine pour table de chevet?" That piece kept us wondering for a while :-) Fun times. Btw, I have finally modified the blog format to show off the photos more. What do you think? Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
