Cultural exhibitions open in Nice and Bucharest

A photography exhibition titled “MARAMUREȘ – A land, a thousand stories” opened on October 29 at the Romanian Orthodox Church Cultural Center in Nice, France. The event aims to connect the Romanian diaspora and the French public with the heritage of the Maramureș Village Museum “Mihai Dăncuș” Sighetu Marmației. The exhibition features photographs by Vasile Timur Chiș, Mark Varga, and Petru Sîngeorzan.

In Bucharest, Canon Romania and the National Geological Museum are set to launch the “World Unseen” exhibition on November 4. This event focuses on the unseen world of corals and the research required to restore reefs. Utilizing lenticular photography and VR experiences, the exhibition highlights the fragility of coral ecosystems. The launch follows a report by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) stating that nearly all evaluated reef ecosystems face a high risk of collapse within the next 50 years due to ocean warming.
