• 2/ Permanent exhibitione ‘the exile of the Spanish republicans “ and ”the special camp at Collioure’.

They headed north in their thousands, women, men, old people, children and soldiers fleeing the dictatorship. The road to exile would be long and painful. That was the price paid by the Spanish republicans.

• 3/ ‘Portraits de Femmes’ exhibition by Agnès Nattier Foucher until 13 April

Discover the ‘Portraits de femme’ exhibition.

Painter Agnès Foucher Nattier has been living in Saint-Paul-de-Fenouillet for a number of years. Attracted by this region of striking beauty, she draws her inspiration from the wild nature and unique light of the landscape.

Her painting is an intimate expression of her emotions: ‘It's often difficult for me to explain my work. My hands act on the canvas by themselves, freeing my mind’.

From 26 January to 13 April 2025, his exhibition at the Château Royal in Collioure will feature some sixty paintings created over the last twenty years. At the heart of this collection are portraits of women from near and far, each with a unique story to tell.

Deeply affected by injustice and violence, particularly that suffered by women, Agnès Foucher Nattier's art holds up a mirror to our times. Faithful to an authentic approach, she works with natural materials – wood, linen, raw pigments – in perfect harmony with nature, a relationship she considers essential to her artistic approach.

It's an invitation to discover a vibrant and committed world, imbued with humanity and sincerity.

Opening on Friday 14 February at 6.30pm
