Visiting Ethnographic Museum "Etara" On July 14 in the Historical Museum Director Snezhana Veleva opened an exhibition of Ethnographic Open-Air Museum "Etara". On the occasion of the exhibition I talked with the curator of the Crafts Department of Etara Etara Rositsa Bineva. For the readers of "Tempo" she shared that in 2004 the museum turned 40 years old and is the only open-air museum in Bulgaria that can afford to present both the preserved tradition and modern times. All this time his idea has always been to represent the culture of the Balkan man. In our museum they visit with the craft of woodworking, because it most fully presents and reveals the spirit and lifestyle of the people of the Balkan. "We boast," she shared, with fast rivers, with forests and engineering talent, which in practice means beauty and practicality. They're doing it all on their own. He chops down his tree, makes his own produce, and sells it himself. The Balkan man is a practical man. The lathe has been used for several generations and is passed down by inheritance and as the mother taught her daughter to spin and weave, so the father has taught his son to lathe." As for the question of when this craft came into being, no one can say - what is certain is that in the 18th-19th centuries it was in bloom. At the exhibition in our museum, Etara Etara is a guest with 130 items from the lifestyle of the Balkan people. The items made by Plamen Peev and Danail Krastev are exposed, which can also be purchased. The exhibition will be in Velingrad until the end of August. Two artists presented new books During the past week, poetic meetings of the artists from the literary club "N.Y.Vaptsarov" Avram Gerev and Ivan Koev were held with the fans of the art speech. The lecturer from the University of Plovdiv "Paisii Hilendarski" Assoc. Marin Kadiev, who is also the chairman of the Union of Independent Writers, presented Avram Gerev's latest book "In the Beginning Was the Word", which the author himself defines as "a basis for spiritual satisfaction". And it is probably because the book "In the Beginning Was the Word" is practically a small encyclopedia of the Velingrad spiritual world in recent decades. It contains sketches, reviews, essays on the artistic uplifts of Velingrad artists from all fields of art and science. Marin Kadiev is defined as "a kind of synthesis of spirituality in the fabulous Velingrad." Avram Gerev was awarded the Honorary Medal of the Union of Independent Writers. Just a day after the first meeting, the Art Gallery again welcomed the numerous connoisseurs of exquisite speech. This time the occasion was Ivan Koev and his poetry collections "Door for All" and "Fireplace". Broken stanzas and short verbless sentences, such structure, composition and rhytmomelodic in our literature, was the assessment of Assoc. Kadiev. Talent is known by the fact that it does not repeat itself, because the artist never repeats himself. The words in it sound new, and a wonderful rhythm and melodiousness are obtained. A poetry that sculpts feelings. And all this for Chepino, for Mom, for Bulgaria. Ivan Koev himself admitted to his readers: "I do not know how to compose poems, I write poems." Kadiev awarded Ivan Koev with the Honorary Medal of the Union of Independent Readers, and the artist Boris Kostov pleasantly surprised everyone by giving Ivan Koev and Assoc. Cadium plaques, and Avram Gerev's statuette. Local artists recreate Rhodope landscapes 11 artists from Velingrad present their paintings at the exhibition, arranged in the Art Gallery within the Festivals of Culture.
