<b>ART-EXPO 2010</b> second annual exhibition was held in Artists' Union of Armenia on February 12. Over 50 cultural organizations and NGOs presented their achievements of the previous year.
According to the organizers, the exhibition is a chance to introduce the achievements of Armenian art to public, to establish new links with International partners and to strengthen cultural cooperation between Armenian and international organizations.
Armenian President <b>Serzh Sargsyan</b> also attended the exhibition.
Hasmik Poghosyan, RA Minister of Culture stated, “This exhibition will promote the cooperation between the state and private cultural organizations of Armenia and show which art products can be exported. Quality of our products is still not high enough, and we have а visualization problem of what we produce. ART-EXPO aims to address this issue, as all we produce is meant to be consumed by broad masses of people.”
She also mentioned that the number of participants has almost doubled. “We also noticed that some participants had disagreements because of the location of their pavilions, which means that they are interested in successful participation on the exhibition,” the Minister said.
Master class by Saida Medvedeva, director of “Mould”, “Water” and other movies, will be organized on the second day of the two-day exhibition.
