/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The 5th art festival titled "Neighbors for Neighbors"
is over in the Polish capital city. The festival included performances,
exhibitions of photos, sculptures and paintings.
Separate pavilions were given to the guests from Israel. As the only
representative of Armenia, photographer and film director Vahram
Mkhitaryan told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter, Armenia was not granted
a separate pavilion, since Armenians were not included in the list
of those invited. When asked how he succeeded to take part in the
exhibition Mkhitaryan said, "I was in Poland at the moment and members
of the Eastern Workshop offered to exhibit my works along with theirs."
Varham Mkhitaryan presented his series of photos titled Kadr
Zero. "These are the first shots in the camera. Many photographers
throw them away, since they have no value. To make a good shot one
should click several times to find exactly what is needed. But the zero
shots carry no negativism and affectation. I just wanted to show them,"
he said. It should be noted that the Kadr Zero was noticed by many art
workers. Some photos by the young artist have been already exhibited in
Galeria SD, one of the most famous galleries in Warsaw. Mkhitaryan said
exhibitions will be also organized in Gdansk and other Polish towns.
