In his speech AGBU Europe Chairman Alexis Govciyan said, "The United Kingdom plays an important role in the European Union on both political and economic levels. Its position in favor of Turkey and Azerbaijan should be changed and a balanced policy must be established, taking into account Armenia’s role in the region. This powerful European country should be more interested in the recogni- tion of the Armenian genocide and should support the his- torical truth. The recent action of the Parliament members from Northern Ireland and Scotland towards the recognition of the Armenian genocide is a very important step. We should work even more actively with the Armenian community in London on various Armenian issues and coordinate our efforts”. During the days in London, AGBU Europe leaders met with various individuals and organizations in- cluding RA Ambassador to UK Vahe Gabrielian, Baroness Caroline Cox, Bi-shop Nathan Hovhanni- sian, members of the Armenian Community & Church Council of Great Britain, and AGBU Young Professionals of London. The main purpose of these meetings was to present the goals and the mission of AGBU Europe, ex- change views on important issues and explore opportunities for partnership and collaboration. MEETING WITH BARONESS COX Baroness Caroline Cox is a member of the British House of Lords and avid crusader for the Armenians of Karabakh. She has continuously supported the Karabakh cause, visited the region for seventy times and knows very well its strategic, political and economic issues. During this meeting the AGBU Europe campaign for Nagorno Karabakh was discussed, the main pur- pose of which is to force the European Union to establish contact with the authorities of Nagorno Karabakh and to provide humanitarian and economic assistance to Karabakh. This initiative was welcomed with enthusiasm by Caroline Cox, who has expressed desire to cooperate with AGBU Europe to counterbalance the strong Azeri propaganda. MEETING WITH ACCC REPRESENTATIVES The issue of the Armenian Genocide recognition by the UK was widely discussed during the meeting with the members of the Armenian Community and Church Council of Great Britain and its Chairman Ara Palamoudian. The British Armenian community has some difficulties to get this recognition espe- cially because of the strong relations between the UK and Turkey. To foster the activities in this field a committee for the Armenian Genocide recognition campaign was established in London. The focus of the meeting between the AGBU Europe Board members and the Ambassador of the RA to UK Vahe Gabrielyan was the aggressive policy of Azerbaijan and Turkey, with a special emphasis on the activities of a London-based organization called the "European Azerbaijan society". AGBU - Sofia 2010-03-01 08:51 (14 March) First Concert Spring Season 2009-2010 of AGBU - Sofia Chamber Orchestra: 100 years of Parekordzagan The concert, dedicated to the 100 anniversary of the "AGBU- Sofia" organisa- tion was a real celebration for the Armenian community in Sofia, and to all who attended it for two reasons: love of music and the excellent already proven " AGBU - SOFIA CHAMBER ORCHESTRA " led by Maestro Bedros Papa- zyan. In the hall of the National Musical Academy " Pancho Vla- digerov" orchestra and soloists, among the best in the country, as well as guest singer from Ar- menia Lucine Hovsepyan, brought out an attrac- tive concert with works by Bach, Salieri, Mo- zart. For these musical meetings, supporters well know that Maestro Papazyan always prepares the program with love and good will in order to acquaint the audience with different styles, mu- sicians, to present the Armenian works, artists and folklore. And now we heard a beautiful Ar- menian song performed with emotion by Lousine Hovsepyan, an opera singer from Ar- menia, soprano with a beautiful voice, who sang as well, inspired and with great emotion, Mo- zart's piece " Exsultate, Jubilate ". A celebration of music and spirituality realized thanks to the Sofia Municipality "Culture" Department and the Armenian General Benevolent Union '"Parekordzagan". AGBU - Sofia 2010-03-23 10:45 (11 April) Second concert of AGBU - Sofia Chamber Orchestra for Spring season 2010, dedi- cated to 95 years of the Genocide On Sunday, 11th of April, at 5 p.m., the AGBU Chamber Orchestra gave its sec- ond concert for Spring Season 2010, dedicated to 95 years of the Genocide. Maestro Bedros Papazyan and the AGBU Chamber Orchestra were welcomed with a big applause by the audience, in the full hall of the National Musical Academy in Sofia. The start of the concert was given with a wonderful interpretation of Georg Tele- man's Suite for two horns, with the solo- ists Yuri Rizov and Jeko Atanasov. The talented harp performer of Armenian origin - Kohar Andonyan, impressed with her performance of Georg Handel's Concert for harp. A very emotional moment of the concert was the appearance of the well known and reputed Bulgarian violinist Prof. Jossif Radionof, who played two pieces from the famous german composer Fritz Kreisler. An original arrangement of Hachaturian's Nocturno from the film Mascarade was also presented to the audience by Maestro Papa- zyan and the AGBU orchestra. Prior to the guest appearance of the choir Gomidas from the town of Haskovo, H.E. the ambassador of the Republic of Armenia - Sergei Manasarian, was given the word. He congratulated the AGBU Sofia Chamber orchestra for its wonderful work and talked about the Armenian Genocide. He expressed his hope that Bulgaria as well would recog- nize it as a historical fact. I n the second part of the con- cert, the choir Gomidas, per- formed the pieces: Hayr Mer; Surp, Surp; Hayer; Kilikia; Ask Parabanc and Erevan Ere- buni. At Hayr Mer (Our Fa- ther) the audience in the hall stood up, manifesting its re- spect to the memory of 1 500 000 victims of the Genocide. The magnificent musical performances that evening united the hearts of Bulgarians and Armenians, who had attended in the Sunday afternoon to experience a real spiritual coming together.

  • Jaarverslag 1998-1999
    Jaarverslag 1998-1999 INTERNATIONAL ■ FESTIVAL ROTTERDAM Jaarverslag 1998-1999 CANAL+ G&DSORW\RE CITROËN Hoofdsponsers Inleiding Het International Film Festival Rotterdam maakt zich op voor het nieuwe mil- lennium. Tijdens de laatste editie van deze eeuw werd de groei van het festival zowel wat betreft het publiek als de vertegenwoordigers van de (inter)nationale filmindustrie gecontinueerd. Rotterdam is uitermate verheugd over deze resultaten, maar beseft tegelijkertijd dat om dit succes te kunnen consolideren een aantal belangrijke zaken volop aandacht verdienen. Zo zullen het management van de groei en de accommodatie voor en de uiteenlopende verwachtingen van het groeiend aantal bezoekers en gasten belangrijke speer- punten zijn voor de komende jaren. Bovendien zal keer op keer gekeken moeten worden hoe een spannend, groot en gevarieerd festival kan worden ontwikkeld dat aansluit op de huidige tijd, zonder de sfeer en intimiteit waar Rotterdam beroemd door is geworden te verliezen. De steun aan de filmmakers en het filmmaken moet de belangrijkste verantwoordelijkheid van het festival blijven, dat niet voor niets international bekend staat als The Supportive Festival. A\ deze elementen moeten eraan bijdragen dat het festival zijn status als een van de belangrijkste filmfestivals in Europa zal blijven behouden. 1999 was een jaar waarin het festival de uitbreidingen van voorgaande jaren bekrachtigde. Dit kan worden bekeken vanuit de twee invalshoeken. Aan de ene kant het publiek, en aan de andere kant het internationale profiel. Rotterdam staat, ook bij filmmakers, bekend om zijn trouwe en enthousiaste publiek. Zoals reeds gezegd mag het festival zich ieder jaar in meer bezoekers verheugen. Sommigen zien het festival als evenement, wat te begrijpen valt daar het filmprogramma traditiegetrouw gelardeerd wordt door extra Rick van der Ploeg activiteiten als live optredens, talkshows en exposities.

  • Chapter 1 Cinema, State, and Nation
    THE UNIVERSITY OF READING Cinema Regarding Nations Re-imagining Armenian, Kurdish, and Palestinian national identity in film Thesis awarded the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, 2007 Department of Film, Theatre & Television Copyright © 2007, 2008 Tim Kennedy Declaration of original authorship Declaration I confirm that this is my own work and the use of all material from other sources has been properly and fully acknowledged T C S Kennedy ii Abstract This thesis examines how film contributes to the collection of visual images and narratives that enable a community to imagine itself as a nation. It focuses on three such communities, the Armenians, the Kurds, and the Palestinians, who have been, or remain, stateless. It argues that, in the face of external threats, stateless nations and their diasporas require repeated re-imagining to ensure their continued existence. A starting point for the study is that cinema is an important site for this re- imagining in the way that it continually highlights concerns with national identity. Using a diverse collection of film in each case, the analysis identifies national themes, key symbols, and formal structures employed by film-makers to depict these nations. The films are categorised by means of the concept of “cinema regarding nations”, that is they are specifically about the respective nations. Through this categorisation, the thesis contributes to national cinema studies by facilitating the critical examination of a body of work which otherwise is fragmented. The study is comparative and uses a combination of textual and contextual analysis that enables the films from each case to be related to their political and social circumstances.
