Azerbaijani artist Anar Huseynzade`s “Baku Fairy tale” is among 210 decorative Easter eggs on charity sale at Faberge Big Egg Hunt in London.
Anar Huseynzade was born in 1981 in Baku, and has quickly gained notoriety as one of Azerbaijan`s young art elite. Huseynzade first attended A. Azimzadeh Art College (1995-99), followed by four years at the Azerbaijan State Art Academy, where he graduated with a Bachelor`s Degree before going on to achieve a Masters in 2005. His work has featured in many major international art exhibitions, including `Culturescapes Azerbaijan` in Basel, Switzerland (2009), a transnational showcasing of Azerbaijan`s most preeminent art works. In 2007, Huseynzade designed and painted a sculpture for the `Maiden Tower International Art Festival`, a celebration of Baku`s most treasured historic site which brought together 20 artists from 18 different countries.
The Big Egg Hunt presented by Fabergé sees over 200 beautifully painted and decorate egg sculptures placed all over central London from 21st February until the Easter weekend. All the two and a half foot eggs will be hidden around 12 Egg Zones, encouraging all of London to participate in what is set to break the Guinness World Record for the most people participating in an Egg Hunt! The Big Egg Hunt hopes to raise over £2million for the charities Elephant Family and Action for Children.
