Opening of the exhibition "Jewish Minsk Before Me" by graphic artist Bogdan Dovgyalo. The paintings feature Jewish buildings and wooden synagogues that formerly existed in Minsk, but have not survived to this day. In his Jewish paintings, the artist draws slightly distorted representations of the Jewish life as a part of Belarusian life. Some of the works are dedicated to the Minsk Ghetto, which will be displayed on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of its liquidation.
The paintings will be exhibited in the main synagogue of Belarus and timed to the opening of the Minsk Jewish Heritage Centre.
