11th M\u00e9rtola Islamic Festival
\n19 to 22 May 2022<\/p>\n
The 11th edition of the Islamic Festival will take place from 19 to 22 May 2022 and will be yet another moment of exaltation of the Islamic roots and influences of M\u00e9rtola. The philosophy behind this Festival is based on historical-archaeological research and the graphic image of each edition is inspired by the collections of the M\u00e9rtola Museum.
\nThe 2022 edition is marked by a plant motif on a ceramic bowl decorated with the ‘corda seca’ technique, dating from the 12th century, which is part of the collection on display at the Islamic Art museum unit. The interior decoration of the bowl is fully ‘corda seca’ in white, green and honey; manganese outlines a central motif with four intertwining stems intersecting with four stylised lotus flowers. The secondary decoration consists of plant motifs spaced along the wall of the bowl wall and a triangular lattice on the rim. Quadripartite compositions, even those that intersect with a second composition as is the case in this item, are interpreted as representations of Paradise (the central point which, in this case, is a circle), from which the four rivers depart.
\nOn the days of the Festival, the M\u00e9rtola Museum units are open continuously on 10, 20 and 21 May, from 10 a.m. to 08 p.m. and on 22 May from 10 a.m. to 06 p.m. Come and visit us!<\/p>\n
