Conference ‘Cultuur en een fles’ and opening of the Exhibition ‘Still Life with Bridle’ (Instituto Cervantes)

On September 16 the Instituto Cervantes invites you to participate in an activity that celebrates cultural, artistic, and gastronomic encounters between Spain and the Netherlands.

At 5:00 p.m. you will be able to enjoy the conference ‘Culture in a bottle’, by the writer and speaker Andrés Pascual, who will introduce you to a fascinating universe of works of art and books, accompanied by tasteful Spanish wine. At the end of the conference there will be a wine tasting from Bodegas Barbadillo, in collaboration with the Spanish Wine Federation. Bodegas Barbadillo is a family winery founded in Sanlúcar de Barrameda, in southern Spain, in 1821.

At 19:00 the opening of the Still Life with Bridle. Tribute to Torrentius exhibition will take place. Realised by the Spanish artist Lluis Ventós, this exhibition reinterprets in contemporary keys the work Still life with bridle by the mysterious 17th century Dutch artist Torrentius. Furthermore, the documentary Cold Case Torrentius (2016) will be displayed, with an introduction by its director Maarten de Kroon.
