Azerbaijan represented at Beijing International Art Biennale [PHOTOS]

The 10th International Art Biennale has officially opened in
Beijing, bringing together artists and artworks from around the
world, Azernews reports.

This year’s biennale is held under the theme “Coexistence” and
features more than 600 works from 120 countries. The exhibition
showcases paintings, sculptures, photographs, contemporary art
pieces, video works, as well as artworks created using modern
digital technologies.

Azerbaijan is represented at the biennale by the artwork
“Village Wedding” by artist Butunay Hagverdiyev. Organized with the
support of the Heydar Aliyev Foundation, the work focuses on the
guests who bring vibrancy to a traditional wedding ceremony, rather
than the bride and groom. Through vivid colors and expressive
composition, the artist highlights rural elements of Azerbaijan’s
national wedding traditions and presents a poetic image of the
simple and hardworking Azerbaijani people.

The artwork has attracted strong interest from Chinese and
international artists, as well as visitors to the exhibition.

The biennale is jointly organized by the China Federation of
Literature and Art, the China Association of Artists, and the
Beijing Municipality, and will run until January 28. The program
also includes the 1st International Art Conference, held as part of
the broader exhibition.
