‘Camins que es troben’

“With the title of Bachelor of Fine Arts and Director of Leisure, I have had many jobs in the creative and the educational sectors, and I think that this dual approach is what has defined my work and my style. This has also been possible thanks to the additional training at the Francesca Bon Maison

school which I attended for three years, where I learned to understand art and illustration from its most abstract and transcendent side, culminating in learning how to live through art as a contemplative experience.”

Riba Rocks ! Fantastic open air muralscapes,emblazon numerous buildings around this idilic Catalan village nesstled high in an oxbow of the river Ebro. This art gallery is expanded every summer as artists from around the world are invited to augment the collection. The riba-rocks possie run guided multlinual tours too.the old bakery's tree of life and the ominous giant spider on the main street my personal favorites. Very easy place to get to by train so even worth a day trip

Riu d'art tour We really enjoyed the Riu d'art tour. So often, as a tourist, you visit a city or town but never really see as much of it as you would like. You may visit the supermarket or café but leave before you have seen all it has to offer. The tour offered us just that. We had the opportunity to really get to know the area and the art tour made this fun for all of us. The children enjoyed spotting the art pieces and the information provided was just right to bring them to life. The lovely weather and character filled streets made for a really delightful afternoon.

An art gallery in the streets of a beautiful rural Catalan village From the moment I stepped off the train I saw the first piece of artwork, a large scale painted mural on the gable end of a crisp white house against the bright blue sky. What a welcome! The village of Riba-roja d'Ebre is beautiful and these pieces of contemporary artwork add moments of such creativity to the place. There's something for everyone, from illustrations, murals, sculptures and installations. There were these handy little boxes around the village which contained the maps, so we found it easy to get around and see all the artworks. The best thing of all, there were plenty of bars along the way to have regular cold beer breaks! A great idea, the art really compliments the historic architecture and the people are really friendly.

GUIDED TOURS

GUIDED TOUR BOOKING FORM

The best way to experience the Riu d’art Open Air Gallery is with a guided tour! The Riba Rocks association members offer guided tours in either English, Catalan or Spanish. A perfect activity for all the family. (Tours are free, although a donation to the association would be greatly appreciated.)

We offer guided tours throughout the summer months. The tour is completed in two parts, a morning stroll and an evening walk. With a long lunch and siesta break in between. If you would like to book a guided tour fill in the form below.

If you are visiting Riba-roja d’Ebre and would like to stay, we can recommended accommodation. Riba Rocks can arrange lunch for you at a local bar or restaurant as part of the day tour. The tour offers you an insight into the background of each artist and the concept behind their work in Riba-roja d’Ebre.

It is a great way of seeing the beautiful, village streets and other sites along the way. You will be given your own map which indicates where each artwork can be found. You can then revisit or recommend to a friend!
