During 2009, The Ministry of Culture of Republic of Bulgaria
organized for another year the national stage of the International
Heritage Photographic Experiment. This initiative is gaining
more and more popularity in the country, with the help of the
annual campaign in the framework of the European Heritage
Days. The number of young people, who are taking part in the
initiative, is increasing continuously. We are noticing with a great
satisfaction that the quality of photos which we are receiving is
getting better and the sphere of shot objects is extending and
getting more varied. As organizers of the event, for us is harder
to choose the winners, among so many good works, in which
the young photographers are presenting their view about the
cultural and natural objects, historical monuments, churches
and monasteries.
This year we have turned the attention of the Bulgarian
participants not only to the cultural monuments, but to the
surrounded environment. In this connection The European
Landscape Convention of the Council of Europe was presented
to the young people. In return we have received photographs,
in which young people’s view for the combination of different
kinds of heritage, and for the necessity of joint efforts in their
protection and socialization were reflecting.
We hope, that the preconditions which we are creating with
our common work, in order to extend the access of the young
people to the heritage of our ancestors, is going to contribute
to the development of their creative work. We are sure that
this is the right direction, exactly in 2009 - the European Year
of Creativity and Innovations, to contribute strengthen of the
diversity of European cultures as the brightest distinguished
feature of our continent.
I wish future success in the creative fearlessness to all of the
participants! |
