Enjoy a talk by a creative duo of photographers Anfisa Bessonova and Anar Kurbanov in YARAT Contemporary Art Space on April 7.

Try a new format, where two speakers will be put in dialogue with each other.

The discussion will revolve around a subject of Contemporary photography, a serious look on non-serious topic.

Anfisa Bessonova has studied economics, but has never exercised this profession. She can’t tell exactly how many years she has spend photographing, and yet, she sincerely believes that photography is her vocation that she has found once and for good. Her work gives meaning to her life, and she is actually working even when she appears not to be working.

Anar Kurbanov has earned a Master’s degree in Urban Architecture and is Ph. D to be. Kurbanov is also a photographer/videographer, the founder of Demiragach brand and a technical director of Hypnotica band.

These two creative individuals have a successful collaboration for the last 5 years. They share creative approaches and complement one another extremely well. They collaborate with almost every print and online publication in Azerbaijan focusing mainly on fashion and portrait photography.

The event will start at 19:00. Admission is free.

YARAT is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to nurturing an understanding of contemporary art in Azerbaijan and to creating a platform for Azerbaijani art, both nationally and internationally. Based in Baku, YARAT (meaning CREATE in Azerbaijani) was founded by Aida Mahmudova in 2011.

YARAT realizes its mission through an on-going program of exhibitions, education events and festivals. YARAT facilitates exchange between local and international artistic networks including foundations, galleries and museums.
