Balgarianovinite.com Original sketch by Christo showing the Wrapped Reichstag was displayed at the Bulgarian Cultural Institute in Berlin on Monday to mark the 90th anniversaries of Christo and Jeanne-Claude’s birth and 30 years since the wrapping of the Reichstag. The joint initiative of the Bulgarian Cultural Institute in Berlin, the Bulgarian News Agency (BTA) and the National Gallery also presented the German-language edition of LIK magazine “Christo and Jeanne-Claude: 90 into Eternity” and the National Gallery exhibition “Wrapped Reichstag, Berlin (1971-1995)”.
Special guests at the event included Minister of Culture Marian Bachev, Bulgarian News Agency (BTA) Director General Kiril Valchev and National Gallery Director Anelia Nikolaeva. Among those present was also Bulgarian Ambassador to Germany Grigor Porozhanov.
Also attending were Metropolitan Anthony of Western and Central Europe and Father Yuliyan Angelov, chair of the Orthodox church St Tsar Boris the Baptizer in Berlin. In the audience was the chair of the German-Bulgarian Forum, Volker Berresheim.
More than one hundred guests attended the event at the Bulgarian Cultural Institute in Berlin, mostly Germans, as well as representatives of the Bulgarian community in Berlin, among them choreographer Eleonora Aleksandrova, jazz musician Vladimir Karparov, artists Vesela Grigorieva and Ivan Kostolov, writer Veso Portarski, Deutsche Welle journalist Marinela Lipcheva, Union of Composers Chair Tsenko Minkin and others.
“Now our audience has the unique opportunity to see a picture, a project by Christo Javacheff, which belongs to the Bulgarian Embassy and the State Cultural Institute with the Minister of Foreign Affairs,” Borislav Petranov, director of the Bulgarian Cultural Institute, said. He expressed his gratitude to Ambassador Porozhanov for the opportunity to show this work at the institute. “Otherwise it is in the ambassador’s office, where it can only be seen by his guests. I am now glad that a larger audience can share in this work of art as well,” Petranov noted.
The publication of the German-language edition of LIK magazine is supported by the Ministry of Culture, Lidl and Kyashif.
