Living between 1889 and 1973, Aragay was a leading figure in the Catalan <em>Noucentisme<\/em> cultural movement. An accomplished art theorist, paints, illustrator, engraver and potter, he had a great influence on the intellectual and artistic world of his generation, to such an extent that Eugeni d\u2019Ors commissioned him as the artistic director of the <em>Almanac dels Noucentistes<\/em>, an annual review of the work of the movement&#8217;s artists. Born in Barcelona, he moved to Breda, his mother&#8217;s home village, in 1925, where he opened a pottery workshop. In the museum, we can also see some well-preserved Romanesque paintings on the walls of the village&#8217;s former parish church, which became the Town Hall as a result of the forced seizure of church property in 1835.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Carrer Nou, 2<br \/>\nOpening hours:<br \/>\nMornings from Thursday to Sunday (and public holidays): 9:30 am \u2013 1:30 pm<br \/>\nSaturday afternoons: 4:00 pm \u2013 7:00 pm<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.museuaragay.cat\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">www.museuaragay.cat<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;17887&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; qode_css_animation=&#8221;element_from_fade&#8221; transition_delay=&#8221;0.4&#8243;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;7\/12&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;17968&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; qode_css_animation=&#8221;element_from_fade&#8221; transition_delay=&#8221;0.4&#8243;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;5\/12&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;17883&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; qode_css_animation=&#8221;element_from_fade&#8221; transition_delay=&#8221;0.4&#8243;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; angled_section=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; background_image_as_pattern=&#8221;without_pattern&#8221;][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;grid&#8221; angled_section=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; background_image_as_pattern=&#8221;without_pattern&#8221; padding_top=&#8221;80&#8243; padding_bottom=&#8221;0&#8243; anchor=&#8221;portfolio&#8221; z_index=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column][vc_row_inner row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text] JOSEP ARAGAY MUSEUM [\/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=&#8221;small&#8221; position=&#8221;left&#8221; down=&#8221;18&#8243; up=&#8221;17&#8243;][vc_column_text]In the ground floor of the Town Council building, the Josep Aragay Museum showcases the artist&#8217;s work.
