With great joy, we are sharing with you moments from the opening of the exhibition “Athos in Drawings and Photographs”!
The opening was inspiring and full of emotion—meetings, conversations, and a shared sense of significance and spiritual depth. Thank you to everyone who was with us—you turned the evening into a true celebration of art and spirituality.
The exhibition, produced by Dekidis Films in cooperation with the Embassy of the Republic of Bulgaria in Athens, is presented under the patronage of the President of the Republic of Bulgaria, Rumen Radev—recognition of its cultural and spiritual importance.
The joint work of artist Andrey Yanev and photographer Prof. Miroslav Dachev— the result of more than 50 expeditions to Athos—reveals the world of the monks: their prayers, daily life, monasteries, sketes, and the silence of the Holy Mountain.
This is not just an exhibition, but a bridge to a profound and timeless tradition.
