This project aims at increasing the visibility of Roşia Montană's built heritage, in support of a better appreciation of its exceptional values and will lead to the creation of a photo & video archive.
The selected artists will participate in a workshop on the cultural heritage of Roşia Montană, held on site from June 15 to 17, where they will:
- be introduced to the value and importance of the heritage of Roşia Montană
- be initiated in the issues of built heritage
- get to know on site the elements of the heritage of Roşia Montană
- record by film and photos the heritage of Roşia Montană
Transport expenses in Romania will be reimbursed and half-board accommodation will be provided in local households in Roşia Montană for the duration of the workshop. Participants are responsible for bringing all necessary gear for the photo and video records.
Photo/video artists who are interested in participating are invited to submit a short motivation letter and a portfolio of maximum 10 photo or video records of architecture and landscape no later than June 10th at the following e-mail address: sorana@rosiamontana.ro.
