An exhibition by a German photo artist Helga Paris opened at the National History Museum of Belarus.
        The exposition describes everyday life of post-war Eastern Germany. All the photos were made from 1968 to 1996. The exposition features 133 black and white photos. “This exhibition is a bridge between the past and the present. Helga Paris spent her childhood in a town, in which the largest Wehrmacht department was located. Later the Soviet Army built a headquarters there. And these factors influenced her works,” curator of the exhibition Inka Schube said.
        Partaking in the opening day of the exhibition in Belarus were Director of the Goethe Institute in Minsk Frank Baumann and Deputy Head of the German diplomatic mission in Belarus Holger Rapior.
The exhibition will stay open in Minsk till 12 October. It is organized by the National History Museum, the Goethe Institute in Minsk, and the Photography Centre in the framework of Germany Weeks in Belarus.
