CONVÍVIO · RIBADAVIA
Ethnological Museum of Ribadavia (Ourense, Galicia)
November 21st, 2026 · Panel 2 at 11:30 am
Next Saturday, November 21st, Binaural Nodar will be in Ribadavia, Galicia, to take part in CONVÍVIO. Culture, rurality and cross-border identities in the peninsular northwest. It is a day of encounter organized by Arraiane Studio and OMIX Ribadavia, with the collaboration and sponsorship of the Concello de Ribadavia and the Museo Etnolóxico de Ribadavia.
The gathering brings together cultural initiatives from the peninsular northwest through conversations, spaces for exchange, performances and a shared meal. It aims to build ties and open paths for collaboration between territories.
At 11:30 am, Luis Gomes da Costa, founder and artistic director of Binaural Nodar, takes part in Panel 2 · A Raia, “Beyond a border. The raia, common identities and cooperation”. The conversation is about the bonds between territories, shared identities and cultural cooperation between Galicia and Portugal.
It is a theme that has been with us from the very beginning. For more than twenty years Binaural Nodar has worked with the other side of the border, always in dialogue with specific places, communities and artists. Galician artists and artists from Zamora and León were at the origin of the association, and many others have passed through Nodar since then. This path gave rise to the Fronte[i]ras festival, in 2007, organized with the Alg-a Association, and to Esquina Noroeste, a network of associations from Galicia, Asturias, Castilla y León and Portugal that was active between 2019 and 2022.
We are bringing these experiences to Ribadavia to put them on the table. We hope the dialogue between the two sides of the raia will continue long beyond this day.
Thank you to Arraiane Studio and OMIX Ribadavia for the invitation and the hospitality.
