Art students from Belarus, Russia, Latvia, Kazakhstan to take part in exhibition in Vitebsk

VITEBSK, 26 May (BelTA) – Art schools of Belarus, Russia, Latvia and Kazakhstan will exchange the experience in art education and will present the works of their students at the international Perspektiva 2010 exhibition in Vitebsk. The project has been organized by the Vitebsk city hall and Vitebsk museum of modern arts, BelTA learned from the director of the museum Valentina Kirillova. Five exhibition areas will be given to young talents from 28 May to 14 June. They will display more than 700 works made in all kinds of genres: fine arts, graphics, design, photography, arts and crafts. The Perspektiva project was launched in Vitebsk in 2006 and is held in the run-up to the International Children’s Day. It has been designed as a performance review of art schools of the city. But with the time, the project has grown beyond the country’s border. The project helps popularize artistic education of children and young people, Valentina Kirillova said. Almost 500 children will take part in the contest this year.
