MINSK, 2 May (BelTA) - Belarus and Armenia will discuss a number of
joint projects in culture. The talks will be held during the Days of
Armenian Culture that are taking place in Belarus on 30 April-5 May,
Deputy Culture Minister of Armenia Artur Poghosyan told Belta before
the solemn opening of the Days of Armenian Culture that was held in
the Belarusian State Philharmonic on 1 May.
Cooperation envisages joint projects in movie-making, joint production
of the Spartacus ballet of Aram Khachaturian, Belarus' participation in
the Armenian exhibition Art Expo that showcases cultural achievements
in various fields of art. Belarus would like to adopt Armenia's
experience in organizing this event to be able to hold a similar
exposition domestically. The sides are to discuss closer ties between
universities, as well as projects within the framework of the CIS.
Artur Poghosyan praised cooperation in literature and translations.
"Last year many books of modern Belarusian writers were translated into
the Armenian language in Armenia. We want our writers, both classics
and modern ones, to be translated into the Belarusian language,"
the Deputy Culture Minister added.
According to First Deputy Culture Minister of Belarus Vladimir
Karachevsky, cultural ties between the two states are promoted not
only by government bodies, but also by artistic teams and public
associations. "I believe we have developed very close ties.
Partnership goes beyond the Days of Culture. The countries cooperate on
a regular basis," he noted. Thus, Armenians take part in the Slavonic
Bazaar in Vitebsk, the Minsk international movie festival Listapad,
the international theater festival Belaya Vezha. Belarusian artists
participate in the Yerevan international movie festival Golden Apricot,
the Aram Khachaturian international music contest and other events.
The Days of Armenian Culture solemnly opened in Belarus on 1 May. The
Days of Armenian Cinema and an exhibition of Armenian artist Arevik
Petrosyan will open on 2 May. The Days of Armenian Culture in Belarus
are organized by the culture ministries of the two countries with
assistance of the Mogilev Oblast Executive Committee and Mogilev
City Hall.
