Balgarianovinite.com “Arts and the media are essential for popularizing the Bulgarian Antarctic mission and for presenting the people behind this country’s record of success on the Ice Continent,” the President of the Bulgarian Antarctic Institute, Prof. Christo Pimpirev, said here on Monday at the opening of a photo exhibition titled “Antarctic Echo” in front of the Bulgarian National Radio (BNR) building.
In his words, the stay in Antarctica of the exhibition author, Marina Velikova, has changed her professional career and has focused attention on people who work there.
Pimpirev acknowledged the presence of members of different generations in the Bulgarian Antarctic expeditions and the people who backed the mission throughout the years. He stressed the importance of the participation of artists and journalists in the Bulgarian expeditions.
“Ours is probably one of the few expeditions that stake on art people and media people joining us on the Ice Continent. Without relaying what we feel to people who are unable to go there, without showing the faces of the people who make Bulgaria an Antarctic nation in those harsh conditions, we couldn’t have made this achievement,” the professor argued.
The Bulgarian Antarctic Institute President thanked the BNR, the Bulgarian National Television (BNT) and the Bulgarian News Agency (BTA) for their efforts to popularize Bulgarian scientific pursuits in Antarctica.
In his words, in recent years BTA has been playing a particularly important role in covering the Bulgarian expeditions and presenting them to the Bulgarian and international public.
“Antarctica is humankind’s future. It intertwines science, economy, geopolitics, and arts,” Pimpirev pointed out.
Winding up his remarks, he described the Antarctic community as one big family bringing together both expedition members and their kindred spirits and friends. “We are one big family. We are new Bulgaria,” the professor said.
The photo exhibition “Antarctic Echo” presents pictures taken during the three latest Bulgarian Antarctic expeditions. It will be on display until July 7.
