PanARMENIAN.Net - An exhibition titled "Armeniaca: The pioneers of the
study of Armenian architectural heritage" organized by the Armenian
General Benevolent Union Europe (AGBU Europe) will be hosted my MEP
Michèle Rivasi at the European Parliament from March 26 to 30, 2012.
The pioneers of the study of Armenian architectural heritage are
those few scholars and architects who have pioneered the rediscovery
and identification over the last decades of a vast, imperiled
Armenian heritage. Their work allows us to envisage the protection
and restoration of hundreds of invaluable buildings disseminated
throughout Europe, Turkey, the Middle East and the Caucasus, the
announcement says.
This exhibition is one of the outcomes of the Armeniaca project that
aimed to contribute to the preservation, digitalization and promotion
of archives dedicated to Armenian architectural heritage. It was
created with the support of the "Culture" Program from the European
Commission.
The Armeniaca exhibition is part of AGBU Europe's work to promote
awareness of the need to protect Armenian heritage. Its first event was
the conference "A Journey of cultural rediscovery: Armenian heritage
in Turkey" organized on 13 November 2008 at the European Parliament
in Brussels.
