Exhibition « Trucs »: the bells, a sensitive expression beyond the mountains
This exhibition, accessible to all, allows us to address a facet representative of pastoralism that are the bells, their manufacture, and the use made by the shepherds and the rest of the population.
This exhibition is proposed in Pau in the third place of La Ciutat, by the CIRDOC-Institut occitan de cultura and the CAP'ÒC.
In addition to a strong link between a shepherd and his flock, the bells represent emblematic objects of the Pyrenean culture and its sounds. This exhibition, accessible to all, allows to approach a facet representative of the pastoralism that are the bells, their manufacture, and the use that can make of them the shepherds but also the rest of the population. While some are used daily, others only come out of the attics on rare occasions, such as Stuff.
