Land of Art and Wine - About the project
|
|
|
The project "Land of Art and Wine" - »Po poteh umetnostne obrti in
vina«, as a common project of the Italian and Slovene partners, is a
continuation of various activities that had been done in the fields of
Idrija Lace and wine within two borderland winegrowing areas – the
Vipava valley and the Brda wine route – in the previous years in the
Northern Primorska region.

Idrija – where lace interwines with Quicksilver.
|
|
|
 Kindly invited to mysterious world of underground tunnels, wild waters and unique works of art.
The town Idrija developed in a basin in the midst of a hilly and woody region. Under a more than one-hundred-meter high precipice of the Črni Vrh plateau, there hides the lake Divje jezero (Wild lake). After heavy rainfalls the water literally bursts out of its spring and turns the typically placid and idyllic lake into a »wild« one.

Vipava Valley – there’s more than meets the eye.
|
|
 The picturesque valley named after the river Vipava is surrounded by
the high plateaus Trnovski gozd and Nanos in the North and by the
plateau Kras (Karst) in the south. Limestone in the north, limestone in
the south, in-between a valley of flysch, locally named »soudan«, a
blend of sandstone and marl layers.
Creeks, which flow into the river
Vipava, spring high up on the slopes of the plateaus. The valley has
had turbulent times in the past, for millennia it's been a passage way
between Italy and the Danube region. Open from the east towards the
west, it was already settled in the Stone Age.

The region of Brda - land of invigorating moments.
|
|
 Whoever has visited the region of Brda, must have been persuaded of the charm of this small Slovene region at the western border. Even though not thoroughly researched, Brda has been acknowledged as a picturesque winegrowing land of rolling hills which has been a melting pot of three cultures – the Slavic, the Romanic and the Germanic ones. Turbulent centuries have left a great impact on the region, nowadays mostly seen through the rich cultural heritage and legacy perceived in all aspects of life.

 A journey taking us into the core of the Venetian history, winds along paths marked with paper, wood, iron and soil; it is a collection of images we take along the city in the lagoon, in order to find the best ways among the best offer of the Venetian traditional crafts and end our trip on the final stage in the previous monastery of Saints Cosmas and Damian on the Guidecca island.
