The earthenware of Ardus and Négrepelisse
In Lamothe-Capdeville, on the Aveyron near Montauban, François Duval, Baron d'Ardus and formidable businessman, created in 1737 a pottery factory which operated for nearly 180 years and received the coveted title of "royal manufactory". Almost fifty years later, in Nègrepelisse, another businessman, Jean Viguié, founded in turn an ambitious workshop which, on the contrary, would operate for barely twenty years, not without difficulties.
Despite the importance of these earthenware pieces, which were exported in large quantities far beyond our region and are now barely known to ceramic enthusiasts, no exhibition had ever been dedicated to them.
Brought together for the first time, 350 objects, mostly unpublished, reveal the scale and variety of the production of these private companies whose history has been entirely reviewed and rewritten.
Guided tours:
- Sunday, May 3rd at 3pm
- Friday, June 5th at 4pm
Saturday, September 5th at 5pm
PICNIC CONCERT
Bring your picnic basket and equipment, and come enjoy this convivial evening with family or friends, enlivened by the duo Clavo y Canela, followed by dancing to revisited standards from the Suave Quartet. Brazilian jazz atmosphere on the program!
- During the picnic, Clavo y Canela
This South American instrumental music duo consists of Peruvian double bassist Carlos Betancourt and Guyanese seven-string guitarist André Da Silva. Their music draws its roots from indigenous and African cultures and blends with European melodies and harmonies.
- at 9pm in the cloister : Suave Quartet
The Suave Quartet invites you on a journey, between the captivating rhythms of Brazil and the sun-drenched sweetness of Italy. This refined quartet weaves a musical universe where samba, bossa nova, and jazz blend with finesse and elegance, drawing inspiration from artists ranging from Sergio Mendes to Gilberto Gil. Singer Nadia Lombardo and musicians Cyril Salvagnac, Fabrice Camboulive and Laurent Meyer transmit a beautiful positive energy where the audience is quickly invited to participate!
