Reviving artisanal passat
Last Saturday, Abacus hosted a photographic exhibition that highlights the ancient trades of Igualada, offering a window to the world of craftsmen who marked the 20th century. Through a selection of images provided by the Anoia County Archive, attendees were able to explore the rich cultural heritage of this territory.
The Force of Image in Collectory Memory
The photographs presented not only serve as visual testimonials of trades that have disappeared, but also allow us to reflect on the importance of preserving our history. Each image is a reminder of manual work and the dedication that characterized these trades, which are now just a shadow in our daily lives.
An interactive experience for everyone
In addition to the exhibition, visitors were able to participate in activities that fostered a dialogue about the importance of traditional trades. The organizers provided a space for conversations and reflections, allowing both adults and children to enter the history of Igualada.
A reminder of the need to preserve our heritage
In an increasingly digitized world, it is essential not to forget the roots that define us. This exhibition not only invites us to remember the trades of the past, but also encourages us to value the craft and creativity that still exist today.
A future with new perspectives
Looking to the future, the need to foster the continuity of this cultural heritage is evident. Initiatives like this exhibition are essential to ensure that the coming generations not only know, but also celebrate the diversity of craft trades.
