These representations also continue to be installed in many homes, whether by cultural tradition or by faith. According to Catalan tradition, the nativity scene was set up on the 6th (Saint Nicholas), the 8th (La Pur\u00edssima) or the 13th (Santa Ll\u00facia) until the 2nd of February (La Candelera). <\/b><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Setting up the nativity scene is a centuries-old tradition. <\/span><b>There are families who treasure the figures, which have been passed down from generation to generation<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and who, as Christmas approaches, stroll around markets and fairs with the aim of discovering some new element. For many families, setting up the nativity scene becomes a shared and festive activity: it is a prelude to all the Christmas activities that await them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, in Catalonia and in other parts of the world, there is <\/span><b>the figure of the \u2018pessebrista\u2019, the artisan who creates nativity scenes as an artistic activity<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The \u2018pessebrista\u2019 is a multidisciplinary artist who, a couple of months before Christmas, starts working on the diorama or nativity scene he or she wants to exhibit. Nativity scenes are considered an ephemeral art, since every year, once the Christmas season is over, it is customary to destroy the work.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>A tradition with 800 years of history<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to the etymological dictionary, the word \u2018pessebre\u2019 [crib] <\/span><b>comes from the Latin word \u2018praesepium\u2019, which means stable or place where animals are kept<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. According to Christian tradition, Jesus was born in a stable, which is why in Catalan this word is used to refer to the representation. In Spanish, on the other hand, the name of the Palestinian town, Bethlehem, where Jesus is said to have been born, is used.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to legend, <\/span><b>Francis of Assisi (1182-1226) made the first nativity scene on Christmas Eve 1223, in a cave in the town of Greccio (Italy)<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. With a live ox and a mule and a feeding trough full of straw, he represented the birth of Jesus to the neighbours he had invited. From then on, representing the birth of Jesus, by means of living nativity scenes or with sculptural figures, in convents, churches and, later, in private homes, became a tradition. <\/span><b>The nativity scene came from Italy to Catalonia in the 18th century<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and has become the most widespread spiritual, cultural and traditional ephemeral art in our community.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In Catalonia there is a long tradition of nativity scenes. <\/span><b>Despite the fact that this artistic hobby has fewer and fewer followers, the nativity scene movement is still very much alive<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Without going any further, in 2018 the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.museudelpessebre.cat\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Museu del Pessebre de Catalunya<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> was inaugurated, located in the medieval village of Montblanc. In 1985 the <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pessebrescat.cat\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Federaci\u00f3 Catalana de Pessebristes<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> was created, with 66 associations in Catalonia and the Balearic Islands and 17,000 members. And since 1969 an annual meeting of artisans has been held, at which the federation and the associations organise courses, talks and meetings.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moreover, the Catalan nativity scene movement is so strong that in 1952 it set up in Barcelona the only international federation of nativity scenes, the Universalis Foederatio Praesepistica (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.unfoeprae.org\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">UN-FOE-PRAE<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">), of which 20 nativity scene organisations from Europe, the United States, Argentina and Brazil are currently members. <\/span><b>The Catalan artisans are recognised throughout the world thanks to the fact that they introduced plaster as a building material<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> at the beginning of the 20th century. On the other hand, Catalonia has had and still has world-renowned sculptors of nativity scene figures.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>The art of sculpting Jesus\u2019 birth<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The work of the nativity scene artisans is truly a work of art. Ismael Porta, the director of the Museu del Pessebre de Catalunya, explains that <\/span><b>making a nativity scene takes between two and three months of work<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. \u201cIt depends on the size and details you want to put in. Because creating a handcrafted nativity scene is not a job that takes up a few hours of a Sunday afternoon, but requires hours of planning and construction,\u201d he says.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For Porta,<\/span><b> so many hours of dedication means that it is difficult to find a generational replacement<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. \u201cYoung people would rather spend their leisure time doing other things than spending two months building a nativity scene,\u201d he laments. In addition to the hours of dedication, it is also necessary for the \u2018pessebrista\u2019 to have knowledge of different disciplines, and this is not always easy to find. \u201cAn artisan has to have artistic knowledge: drawing, perspective, lighting, landscaping, painting, mechanics? It all depends on the sophistication of the diorama,\u201d the expert says.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because a diorama depicts a scene from a particular moment in the life of the people, the central theme of which is the life of Jesus. Therefore, the interior of a house, the streets and the natural landscape can be seen in the diorama. The representations, like the figures, have two themes: <\/span><b>the Hebrew, which represents the land where Jesus was born; and the popular, which represents the daily life of the Catalan people<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Thus, we can find nativity scenes with figures dressed in sashes, \u2018barretina\u2019 [a typical Catalan hat], aprons and headscarves, or in oriental-style clothing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The materials used to make a diorama are <\/span><b>cork, cardboard, moss, polyethylene and plaster, among others<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The Catalans were the first to introduce plaster into the nativity scene, a fact that revolutionised the world of nativity scenes and was soon imitated. And in recent years, polyethylene has been introduced. \u201cPolyethylene is used quite a lot, because it is a lighter material, which allows larger constructions to be made, but it is less manageable. Gypsum is easier to work with, because it gives you more options. On the other hand, it weighs more,\u201d Porta explains. It should be borne in mind that the base of a diorama can be between a metre and a metre and a half long, and transporting it is complicated when it weighs a lot.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>However, the cost of the crib is not very high<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. \u201cIt doesn\u2019t represent a very high investment in material, since a sack of plaster is cheap and polyethylene is usually reused, as we are used to collect remains of buildings under construction,\u201d Porta argues. And he adds: \u201cIt all depends on what you want to spend. If you want to put in a motor to make water run or make the wind blow, the lighting&#8230; Without a doubt, the most expensive thing, if you want the crib to look good, is the figures.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The artisan designs and builds a landscape, makes streets, houses, adds vegetation, lighting and fills it with characters. Figures made of clay, plastic, even Playmobil. \u201cSometimes you come across dioramas that are real works of art. Even so, they are spoiled by the figures that have been placed. The figures are a world apart,\u201d Porta says. The expert regrets that there are fewer and fewer figurine craftsmen. \u201c<\/span><b>In Barcelona there are few figure workshops left<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. One of the best known, the workshop of the Castells brothers, who are the third generation, will have to close because they have no generational replacement.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Porta explains that <\/span><b>many artisans create their own figures<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, as is his case and that of another Montblanc nativity scene maker. Both go to Barcelona every Thursday to learn how to make figures with the Castells brothers. \u201cGiven the fact that there are fewer and fewer artisans of figures, we reached an agreement with them and they have been teaching us how to make figures for four years now.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>A profession that depends on voluntary work<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although it seems that the world of nativity scenes is in recess, because it is difficult to find a new generation, <\/span><b>it is a living world thanks to the artisans who feel the need to share the ephemeral work of art that they make every year<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. A clear example of this voluntarism is the Museu del Pessebre de Catalunya, which works thanks to the impulse of the Associaci\u00f3 de Pessebristes de Montblanc with the collaboration of the Federaci\u00f3 Catalana de Pessebristes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It must also be said that this completely masculinised world already has its first female artists. Moreover, thanks to the <\/span><b>numerous exhibitions that we can visit all over the country<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and thanks to the disinterested enthusiasm of people who dedicate hours to courses, talks and various activities, there are still young people who take part in this tradition.
