El monasterio de Santa María de Montserrat es un monasterio benedictino situado en España. Se encuentra en la montaña de Montserrat, perteneciente a la comarca catalana del Bages, provincia de Barcelona, a una altura de 720 metros sobre el nivel del mar. Es un símbolo para Cataluña y se ha convertido en un punto de peregrinaje para creyentes y de visita obligada para los turistas.
Dentro de las diferentes acciones que se desarrollan en Montserrat destaca la escolanía que es uno de los coros de niños cantores más antiguos de Europa.
El origen del monasterio es incierto. Se sabe que sobre el 1011 un monje procedente del monasterio de Santa María de Ripoll llegó a la montaña para encargarse del monasterio de Santa Cecília, quedando así el cenobio bajo las órdenes del abad Oliva de Ripoll. Santa Cecilia no aceptó esta nueva situación por lo que Oliva decidió fundar el monasterio de Santa María en el lugar en el que se encontraba una antigua ermita del mismo nombre. A partir del 1082, Santa María pasó a tener abad propio y dejó de depender del abad de Ripoll.
Esta ermita se había convertido en la más importante de todas las que existían en la montaña gracias a la imagen de la Virgen que en ella se veneraba desde el 880. El monasterio pronto se convirtió en santuario lo que le benefició, ya que los donativos y las limosnas recibidas le permitieron ir creciendo de forma constante. A finales del siglo XII, el abad regente solicitó que se permitiera ampliar la comunidad de monjes a 12, mínimo requerido para que se considerara abadía . El siguiente siglo fue el del inicio de la lucha de Montserrat para conseguir su independencia del monasterio de Ripoll. Esta independencia no llegó hasta el 10 de marzo de 1410 y fue concedida por el Papa Benedicto XIII.
En 1493, Montserrat perdió de nuevo su independencia. El rey Fernando el Católico envió al monasterio 14 monjes procedentes de Valladolid y Montserrat pasó a depender de la congregación de esta ciudad castellana. Durante los siglos siguientes se sucedieron los abades catalanes y castellanos. Ese mismo año de 1493, el fraile mínimo Bernat Boil, antes ermitaño de Montserrat, acompañó a Cristóbal Colón en uno de sus viajes a América lo que propició la expansión del culto a la virgen de Montserrat en ese continente.
El siglo XIX fue especialmente trágico para Montserrat: fue incendiado dos veces por las tropas napoleónicas, en 1811 y en 1812; y en 1835 sufrió la exclaustración debido a la desamortización de Mendizábal. El monasterio fue saqueado e incendiado y se perdieron muchos de sus tesoros.
La exclaustración duró poco y en 1844 se restableció la vida en el monasterio. La congregación de Valladolid había desaparecido por lo que Montserrat se convirtió de nuevo en independiente. El monasterio entero se tuvo que restaurar ya que no habían quedado más que las paredes. Desde entonces el monasterio de Santa María de Montserrat no ha dejado de crecer, contiene una de las mejores bibliotecas de España. La congregación actual está formada por unos 80 de monjes. Además, en el monasterio residen los niños que componen la Escolanía de Montserrat, considerada la escuela de canto de más antigüedad en Occidente ya que fue fundada en el siglo XIII.
El monasterio
El conjunto del monasterio está formado por dos bloques de edificios con funciones distintas: por un lado la basílica con las dependencias monacales; y por otro los edificios destinados a atender a peregrinos y visitantes. Estos últimos incluyen diversos restaurantes, tiendas y una zona de alojamiento.
Vida monástica
Claustro de la Santa Cueva.
El monasterio de Santa María de Montserrat, como cualquier otro conjunto religioso, consta de dos partes diferenciadas que se complementan. La parte arquitectónica y artística y la parte espiritual y religiosa. En Montserrat esta última parte está definida por la Orden de monjes que rige el monasterio, la Orden Benedictina, con una comunidad de unos 80 monjes que se mantiene al frente del monasterio por más de 1.000 años, que se basa su práctica en la Regla de San Benito y en la oración litúrgica, su lema es :"Ora et Labora". Para San Benito, como bien lo define en prólogo de su Regla, un monasterio es una escuela al servicio del Señor. Esto hace que "el monasterio" sea la base fundamental de la existencia de la comunidad cuyos vínculos deben llegar a ser afectivos al grado de familiares. El monasterio debe hacer fácil, natural y flexible la relación con Dios.
Los benedictinos practican la vida contemplativa, que es la que da prioridad y preferencia al ejercicio de la oración y se establece como un ideal puro de vida cristiana. La relación del hombre con Cristo, la que busca el monje de Montserrat, viene señalada en tres ocasiones en la Regla de San Benito;
Nada anteponer al amor de Cristo (Reg. cap. IV).
Los que nada estiman tanto como Cristo (cap. V).
Nada absolutamente prefiera a Cristo (cap. LXXII).
La relación debe ser muy personal, muy directa llegando a la intimidad. Los monjes benedictinos han de ser hombres de fe, disfrutando del gozo de la misma y hombres de oración, que se opongan al activismo y a la agitación, haciendo de la oración el más alto valor religioso. Se cultiva la caridad entendida como el amor a Dios y la convivencia fraternal.
Los monasterios benedictinos solo mantienen lo principal;
* Estabilidad, contra el peregrinar de los monjes andariegos.
* Vida en común, contra el egoísmo del aislamiento.
* Un Abad, como principio activo de autoridad.
* Un orden en la vida.
Junto a la caridad, la disciplina es una de las directrices importantes. La caridad, propiciada por la vida en común, es el amor al prójimo y lucha contra el egoísmo. La disciplina se eleva contra el protagonismo y la originalidad, concretándose en la obediencia y el cumplimiento de la Regla. De estas directrices nacen los tres votos que procesan los monjes benedictinos:
* Estabilidad: Permanencia y perseverancia en un monasterio.
* Conversión de costumbres: Que la entrega a Dios sea real y no una pura fantasía.
* Obediencia según la Regla: Sometiéndose a la autoridad de un jefe.
El voto de Obediencia según la Regla solo puede llevarse a cabo con la figura del abad. El abad debe ser la representación de Cristo en el monasterio. Gobierna el mismo en sus tres vertientes, la espiritual, la docente y la de gestión.
Para que estos objetivos que se persiguen en la vida monástica puedan llevarse a cabo es imprescindible el silencio. El silencio es el que permite, en la oración, oír a Dios.
La oración culmina con el Oficio Divino y la Sagrada Liturgia, donde el Sacrificio Eucarístico es el centro. La oración es el centro de la vida benedictina.
La vida de un monje está basada en la caridad fraterna, sin caridad no se pude mantener la relación fraternal de la vida monástica ni la entrega a Dios. La Regla dice:
Este es el celo que con ferventísimo amor ejercitarán los monjes, es decir: que se prevengan unos a otros con honores; súfranse pacientísimamente los defectos del alma y cuerpo; préstense a porfía obediencia mutua; ninguno busque su propia utilidad, sino más bien la del otro; tribútense una casta caridad fraterna.
La búsqueda de Dios por medio de Cristo pasa por la Pasión, por la mortificación que el monje debe seguir. Mortificación espiritual que significa la renuncia de voluntaria a la propia voluntad.
El rechazo de la riqueza, de los bienes materiales que estorban el camino de hacia Dios da como resultado la pobreza. La consecuencia de esta pobreza es el trabajo necesario para el mantenimiento de la vida. El trabajo es el elemento más contribuyente al equilibrio de la vida benedictina.
La dirección espiritual y la instrucción litúrgica son las formas de apostolado que una comunidad benedictina ejerce. Esto se concreta en la apertura de la iglesia monástica a quien quiera integrase en la oración colectiva y el monasterio a quien busque un ambiente de paz y serenidad.
La basílica de Montserrat
Fachada principal de la basílica.
La basilica de Montserrat es de una sola nave. Se comenzó a construir en el siglo XVI y fue reconstruida por completo en el siglo XIX (año 1811) después de la destrucción en la guerra de la Independencia. La fachada se realizó en 1901.
Alrededor de la única nave se sitúan diversas capillas. La nave está sostenida por unas columnas centrales, con tallas realizadas en madera por Josep Llimona. En la cabecera está situado el altar mayor y la zona del coro. En 1881 el papa León XIII le otorgó la condición de "basílica".
Justo encima del altar mayor se sitúa el camarín de la Virgen al que se accede después de atravesar una portalada de alabastro en la que aparecen representadas diversas escenas bíblicas.
El órgano
El órgano de la iglesia de Montserrat data de 1896 y en 1957 se trasladó al presbiterio. Este órgano esta muy deteriorado. El órgano nuevo que esta previsto inaugurar en el año 2007 es una obra importante que busca situar a Montserrat a un nivel musical internacional.
este órgano esta proyectado por Albert Blancafort, construido por Blancafort, orgueners de Montserrat y financiado por subcripción popular y la obra social de la Caixa de Penedes.
El órgano va ubicado en el lateral de la nave, como es tradicional en Cataluña, ofreciendo una muy buena sonoridad en todo el templo.
Las características del instrumento son:
* 63 registros.
* 4.230 tubos.
* 4 teclados manuales de 58 notas.
* 1 teclado de pedal de 32 notas.
* Transmisión mecánica.
* 12,5 m. de altura, 5,5 de anchura y 4 de fondo.
* 12.000 kg de peso.
El claustro
El claustro del monasterio es obra del arquitecto Josep Puig i Cadafalch. Es de dos pisos sostenidos por columnas de piedra. El piso inferior se comunica con el jardín y dispone de una fuente en su zona central. En las paredes del claustro se pueden ver piezas antiguas, algunas del siglo X.
El refectorio
El refectorio es del siglo XVII y fue reformado en 1925 por Puig i Cadafalch. La parte central cuenta con un mosaico que representa a Cristo mientras que en la zona opuesta se puede ver un tríptico con escenas de la vida de San Benedicto.
El museo
Artículo principal: Museo de Montserrat
El monasterio dispone de un importante museo dividido en tres secciones distintas:
* Pintura moderna, con obras de artistas de Cataluña como Rusiñol, Casas, Nonell, Mir, Picasso y Dalí; así como una representación del impresionismo] francés con autores como Renoir, Monet, Sisley y Degas.
* Arqueológia del oriente bíblico, donde se muestran objetos de Egipto, Chipre, Mesopotamia y Tierra Santa.
* Pintura antigua, donde se muestran obras de autores como el Greco, Caravaggio (de esta autor se exhibe un importante "San Jerónimo") y Berruguete.
Además se pueden ver otras colecciones como iconografía de Montserrat, orfrebrería religiosa, etc.
Espacio audiovisual
Espacio audiovisual con el título de Montserrat portes endins se expone mediante una serie de audiovisuales las actividades diarias de los monjes así como un paseo virtual por los espacios más representativos del complejo monacal.
El exterior
Plaza de Santa María.
En la parte exterior se distribuyen diversas plazas que sirven para ordenar el conjunto de edificios en la orografía escarpada de la montaña. Este espacio exterior, al que se han añadido diversas obras escultóricas, conforma un "museo al aire libre". Destaca especialmente el Rosario Monumental de Montserrat.
La plaza de Santa María es la plaza principal y la que da acceso al monasterio y es obra también de Puig i Cadafalch. Desde la plaza se puede observar la nueva fachada del monasterio, construida por Francesc Folguera con piedra de la propia montaña. A la izquierda se pueden ver los restos del antiguo claustro gótico.
En la plaza del abad Oliva se encuentran los edificios que dan albergue a los peregrinos. La plaza está presidida por una estatua dedicada al fundador del monasterio, realizada en 1933 en bronce por el escultor Manuel Xuclà.
La última de las plazas de Montserrat es la de la Santa Cruz, dedicada a San Miguel. La plaza recibe su nombre de la cruz que la preside, obra del escultor Josep Maria Subirachs.
La Santa Cueva de Montserrat es el lugar en el que apareció la Virgen. Para acceder a él, y al vía crucis que existe cerca se puede usar un funicular. También hay servicio de funicular para subir hasta Sant Joan desde donde se puede obtener una de las mejores vistas de lugar.
La Virgen de Montserrat
La moreneta
Según la leyenda, la primera imagen de la Virgen de Montserrat la encontraron unos niños pastores en el 880. Tras ver una luz en la montaña, los niños encontraron la imagen de la Virgen en el interior de una cueva. Al enterarse de la noticia el obispo, intentó trasladar la imagen hasta la ciudad de Manresa pero el traslado fue imposible ya que la estatua pesaba demasiado. El obispo lo interpretó como el deseo de la Virgen de permanecer en el lugar en el que se la había encontrado y ordenó la construcción de la ermita de Santa María, origen del actual monasterio.
La imagen que en la actualidad se venera es una talla románica del siglo XII realizada en madera de álamo. Representa a la Virgen con el niño sentado en su regazo y mide unos 95 centímetros de altura. En su mano derecha sostiene una esfera que simboliza el universo; el niño tiene la mano derecha levantada en señal de bendición mientras que en la mano izquierda sostiene una piña.
Con excepción de la cara y de las manos de María y el niño, la imagen es dorada. La Virgen, sin embargo, es de color negro, lo que le ha dado el apelativo popular de La Moreneta (la morenita). Aunque se ha afirmado en ocasiones que el origen de este ennegrecimiento está en el humo de las velas que durante siglos se han colocado a sus pies para venerarla, lo cierto es que en toda Europa se veneran vírgenes negras (p.e. la Virgen de Guadalupe, o la Virgen de la Peña de Francia, en Salamanca), que habría derivado de la cristianización del culto a las antiguas diosas de la tierra (Isis, Cibeles, Artemisa...)
El 11 de septiembre de 1884, el Papa León XIII declaró oficialmente a la Virgen de Montserrat como patrona de Cataluña. Se le concedió también el privilegio de tener misa y oficios propios. Su festividad se celebra el 27 de abril.

Henry Moore - Form and Material - Museum Beelden aan Zee - The Hague
In collaboration with the Henry Moore Foundation, Museum Beelden aan Zee has made a selection of works from the artist's substantial oeuvre. Around 70 objects and sculptures portray the artistic vision and creative process of one of the most important innovators of modern sculpture. The exhibition in Beelden aan Zee focuses on the influence of nature on his work and his growth and development as a sculptor. From promoting direct carving – carving without using preparatory sketches and studies – to experimenting with casting in lead and bronze. Henry Moore (1898-1986) is one of the most important British artists of the twentieth century. His sculptures balance on the boundary between figurative and abstract art and continue to be a source of inspiration to artists. His work has a recognisable and characteristic formal language. Important themes in his oeuvre are ‘mother and child’ and his reclining figures, which he explored extensively.
From the 1920s, Moore participated in countless British and international exhibitions, with solo as well as group exhibitions, he sold work on a regular basis, and so made a name for himself as an important modernist sculptor. However, the Second World War called a halt to these positive developments. Henry Moore left his teaching post and took up a commission as a war artist. It was in this capacity that he produced his deeply moving Shelter Drawings of Londoners crowding the city's underground stations sheltering from the Blitz. In the 1950s he created larger groups of figures. The prices for his works increased considerably and his fame as an international artist continued to grow. In later years he served as a trustee at both the Tate Gallery and the National Gallery and he was the recipient of a large number of prizes and honours.

This is a photograph from the Athlone 10KM and 5KM road races were held in Clonown Village, Co. Roscommon, Ireland on Sunday 26th of April 2015 at 14:00 and 14:30. Clonown is a small townland on the west bank of the River Shannon and is situated about 3 miles south of the town of Athlone. Whilst the townland is almost completely rural it is accessed easily from major routes and towns by the M6 motorway. The weather was perfect for today's race and participants enjoyed very warm spring sunshine. There was a slight breeze on certain parts of the course but overall it was a beautiful day for running. Over 200 people took part in both events.

We have an extensive set of photographs from today in the following Flickr Album: www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157651739578427/
Timing and event management was provided by Precision Timing. Results are available on their website at www.precisiontiming.net/result.aspx?v=864 with additional material available on their Facebook page (www.facebook.com/davidprecisiontiming?fref=ts) See their promotional video on YouTube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-7_TUVwJ6Q
This race was the fourth annual running of the vent. Every aspect of the organisation was professional: from stewarting, registration, start of races exactly on time, car-parking, and post race refreshments. The 10KM route followed an anti-clockwise loop. The race started on the L2035 Togher Road (about 100m from Clonown Centre - see here on Google Streetview goo.gl/maps/xWj3i) and heads towards the old Ballinasloe Rd (emerging here - see on Google Streetview goo.gl/maps/P6rE8) and back via Creggan (turning off the main road at this point - see Google StreetView goo.gl/maps/wCHT0) with the finish at the Clonown Community Centre. The course turns at this point [goo.gl/maps/7sa6u] to return to the finish. The stretch from the exit off the Old Ballinasloe Road to the Creggan turn off brings the race through wide open bogland areas used in the peat extraction industry.
The 5KM race route follows a different route around the townland. The race starts at the church in Clonown and head clockwise around the Ballinaculla townland which offers lovely views of the River Shannon. The route then goes to the Drumlosh road and runs for 1.5 km before the roundabout which is the 3km mark. The race then turns around and returns back to the village and finish at Clonown Community Centre. Both races share some of the race route for the Flatline Athlone Half held annually in September (www.athlonehalfmarathon.com/) which makes the race routes very fast and flat.

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably http://www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets
Seminar: MATERIAL FORMATION IN DESIGN
Professor: MARK ROTHEROE
Teaching Assistant: Will Fox
Ashley Ozborn's work
Mixed materials, approx. 25cm tall, 8cm wide and 9cm high.
Materials used: wheels from an old wooden toy, rusty old grater, piece of leather from my Converse sneakers, airvalves from a bike, earpiece, thingy from an old car and other bit and pieces.
On the icy crust of Jupiter's moon Europa, Webb has discovered carbon dioxide that likely originated in the liquid water ocean below. The carbon dioxide was found to be most abundant in an area called Tara Regio, where there is evidence of material exchanging between Europa’s internal ocean and its crust. Carbon dioxide isn’t stable on Europa’s surface, so scientists believe it was deposited fairly recently, geologically speaking. Understanding the chemistry of this ocean could help determine if it is a good place for life as we know it.
Webb builds off Juno, Galileo, New Horizons and other spacecraft who have taken close-ups of Europa. In Oct. 2024, NASA plans to launch the Europa Clipper mission, which will perform dozens of close flybys of Europa to further investigate if it could have conditions for life.

This image: Four views of Europa. Far left: This image shows Europa as a fuzzy blue and white sphere. There are darker blue patches in most of the northern hemisphere, as well as two distinct white patches along the southern hemisphere. Note that Europa appears hazy because it is very small compared to its distance from us (390.4 million miles, or 628.3 million km!). Missions like Voyager and Juno get up close to the bodies they are observing, giving them a high-resolution view. Other three images: Three compositional maps derived from Webb’s NIRSpec instrument data. These pixelated, circular maps each feature white, blue, or orange squares of various shades. The white pixels represent carbon dioxide ice. The pixelation is due to Europa being 10x10 pixels across the field of view, but there’s amazing data—a full NIRSpec spectrum—in each pixel!

Image description: Four square panels are arranged in a 4x1 grid. Far left features a blue-and-white sphere against a black background, reminiscent of the “Blue Marble” picture of Earth. With fuzzy edges, this sphere has darker blue patches in the northern hemisphere and two large white patches in the southern hemisphere. Below it is the label: “Europa (NIRCam).” Each of the second, third, and fourth panels has a pixelated, roughly circular image of small white, blue, or orange squares.
