SPECIAL GUEST

Maya BAGHIROVA – KARABAKH – Photographic Exhibition The Black Garden

Words from his excellency Rahman Mustafayev – Ambassador of the Republic of Azerbaïjan to France.

Remembrance Day in tribute and memory of the Martyrs of Karabakh – Tribute from his excellence SEM Rahman Mustafayev – Ambassador of the Republic of Azerbaijan to France.

Thirty years of occupation have made our beautiful province of Karabakh this dismal field of ruins.
Destroyed our pretty white houses, our monuments, our squares around which our families cheered, devastated our museums, our schools, ransacked our temples and our graves …

Soon these scars of hatred will give way to new towns. The newfound life will erase the stigmata of the Caucasian Hiroshima.
Behind the courtyards of the reconstructed schools, the laughter of the children will rise.
Voices will escape from the walls of the theater again.
Again, we will hurry, we will hurry to the terrace of cafes, again, we will remake the world.
And, in our reconquered land, we will finally resuscitate the delights of our « BLACK GARDEN ».
