Pico Museum hosts Pico Mountain Festival

The Regional Directorate for Culture, through the Pico Museum, promotes some of the activities of Pico Festival Mountain programme at the Whaling Museum in Lajes do Pico in January. The initiative is organised by MiratecArts association.

During the month of January, the "Paintings" exhibition by American artist of Dutch descent, Connor de Jong, who currently resides on Faial, will be open to the public at the Whaling Museum's Temporary Exhibitions Gallery.

In turn, the Auditorium of the Whaling Museum will screen award-winning films every Tuesday of this month at 9 PM; admission is free.

"Divine Order" by Petra Biondina Volpe will be screened on January 8. This dramatic comedy about the change of mentalities and the emancipation of women, set in the early 1970s in Switzerland, won the award for "Best Film" at the 2017 Tribeca Film Festival.

On January 15, the auditorium presents Cédric Khan's "The Prayer," which tells the story of a drug addict who joins a community of ex-addicts living in isolation and uses prayer as a form of healing. In turn, "Eldorado XXI" by Salomé Lama will be screened on January 22. The latter film portrays the experience of the highest altitude community in the world, La Rinconada y Cerro Lunar, sitting in the Peruvian Andes at an elevation of 5,500 metres.

Finally, on January 29, the auditorium presents Edouard Deluc's "Gauguin," a film narrating the painter's artistic itinerary from his journey to Tahiti with the aim of freeing his art from the moral, political and aesthetics codes of civilised Europe.

The Regional Directorate for Culture informs that this and other events may be consulted in the Cultural Agenda of CulturAçores Portal at the following address: www.culturacores.azores.gov.pt.
