Azerbaijani artist Rovshan Guliyev has exhibited his painting in
Estonia, Azernews reports.
The exhibition called 'Azerbaijani patterns' took place in the
Design and Architecture gallery with the support of the State
Committee on Work with Diaspora and the Azerbaijani embassy in
Estonia.
Turkish ambassador to Estonia Basak Turkoglu, representatives of
the Azerbaijani community as well as the Estonian public and mass
media attended the event.
In his speech, Azerbaijani ambassador to Estonia Anar Maharramov
noted that 2022 is declared the Year of Shusha in Azerbaijan.
He added that the city of Shusha is of special importance in
Azerbaijan's cultural life and is declared the cultural capital of
Azerbaijan.
Shusha. The cultural capital of Azerbaijan
Shusha has historically been one of the important centers of the
historical, cultural, and public-political life of Azerbaijan.
In 1977, Azerbaijan's national leader Heydar Aliyev declared the
historical part of Shusha a historical and architectural reserve.
As a result, major steps were taken to protect monuments in Shusha
and perpetuate the memory of prominent cultural and artistic
figures.
However, Armenia occupied the city of Shusha on May 8, 1992, and
pursued a policy of destroying the historical and cultural heritage
of the Azerbaijani people in the city. The historical justice was
restored on November 8, 2020, when Shusha was liberated from the
Armenian occupation.
An immediate inventory of the damage to the city, its historical
and cultural heritage, and nature was carried out, and restoration
work has begun as well.
Speaking about the exhibition, Rovshan Guliyev expressed his
confidence that it will contribute to the further development of
cultural ties between Azerbaijan and Estonia. The ambassador wished
artist Rovshan Guliyev success in his future activities.
