International trade shows of art holograms, "Holography in 2012. Vitebsk"

in Vitebsk, in the exhibition hall of the Vitebsk Regional Museum (Town Hall), will feature international trade shows of holograms , "Holography in 2012. Vitebsk" . The exhibition will be presented to more than 50 feature holograms from 14 countries , including Australia, Belarus, Great Britain, Israel, Iran, Canada, Lithuania, Portugal, Romania, Russia, USA, Turkey, Ukraine, France.

Note: Artistic holography (DISP L AY holography) - is the art of the new millennium, the work at the intersection of art, psychology, and physics. Artistic holography is of great interest in the world, being the most effective way to reflect the three-dimensional images on a flat surface, which is increasingly used in art, advertising, museum business, design and architecture, cartography, in various educational programs, and many other areas.

The international trade shows will feature both analog and digital holograms that will amaze all visitors, young and old.

Among the digital holograms will be somewhat unique works of large dimensions, with moving images. The spacecraft, jet fighter, cartoon characters, sea shark, which opens its mouth at the approach of visitors, and other digital holograms will leave no one indifferent.

In the world there are only a few studios that can create artistic hologram. One of these studios located in Belarus, in Minsk, it is - the company " Magic Light "was founded in 1988 a major Belarusian scientists in the field of holography L.V.Taninym . The specialists of the company created several hundred analog holograms, which were highly appreciated by the audience of specialists and the various competitions and exhibitions, including a unique series of holographic copies of ancient relics of the Belarusian "Treasures of the Belarusian land" ( Belt Vytautas and others ).
Magic of Light " pays special attention to the creation of holographic copies of Orthodox shrines: at "Holography-2012. Vitebsk "will be presented to more than ten such holograms, which shows the Orthodox icons and crucifixes: Cross of Euphrosyne of Polotsk, Our Lady of Korsun, Sergius of Radonezh, St. Harlampi, Christ the Savior Cathedral, and others.

A unique project for the staff of "The Magic of Light" was shot holographic copies of Euphrosyne of Polotsk of the cross in full size. In 2008 with the blessing of Metropolitan of Minsk and Slutsk Filaret, this relic was brought to the Orthodox nuns Euphrosyne of Polotsk Saviour Convent in Minsk, in the holographic studio. There are only a few copies of the hologram, one of which was presented to the Patriarch of Moscow Alexy II during his visit to Belarus, the second - donated by Metropolitan Filaret, the third - placed in one of Minsk churches, and the fourth will be able to see firsthand the visitors in Vitebsk.

"The Magic of Light" is a member of the international project "Treasures of Orthodoxy," to create a holographic copies of Orthodox shrines. In this project we are involved in Greece, Bulgaria, Russia, Ukraine and Belarus. The objective of this project is a joint exhibition, through which believers of different countries will be able to see firsthand the bulk copies of Orthodox shrines. Coordinator of the project by the rector of All Saints of Belarus is Minsk church, Fr. Theodore (Karpovna).

 "The Magic of Light" and creates conceptual art hologram very popular works such as "egg on a bed of nails", "Typewriter", "Spoon" and several others.

The exhibition in Vitebsk for the first time will feature the fruits of co-operation of "magic light" and the Vitebsk Regional Museum : Art of the hologram, taken from the museum's exhibits will be displayed next to these exhibits, so you can compare the original with its holographic replica . In particular, the hologram will be bone pectoral cross, which dates from the XV - the beginning. XVI centuries.

International trade shows "Holography-2012. Vitebsk" is a continuation of the first World's Fair art holograms, "Holography-2011" , which was a great success in Minsk in October-December 2011, having collected a record number of visitors - more than 100 thousand people. The International trade show was held in the trade shows halls of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus with the support of the Minsk city executive committee of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus and a number of major scientific and industrial organizations as our country and abroad.

The number of reports on an trade shows in Minsk newspapers and other print media, as well as on radio and television in Belarus, Russia and other countries, has reached several hundred. With a selection of videos, radio and television coverage of the trade fairs , as well as a video about the Exhibition can be found on the page:   http://vk.com/golografia . An extensive collection of materials made ​​by grateful visitors posted on scientific Web site at: http://www.sciencel.com/iresource/scien ce_news/248 .

Visitors to the exhibition in Minsk was especially a lot of students and pupils, many of which were on display for several hours. Many of them first saw the art hologram - a practical application of physics, chemistry and other sciences, and assessed the prospects of holography - that the future of nanotechnology. Specially trained guides and educational posters allow visitors to get acquainted with various techniques of art recording the holograms. Inspiring students to study science, drawing the youth advanced, high technologies, the exhibition contributed to the growth level of scientific knowledge among young people and strengthen the scientific personnel of our country.

As the exhibition in Minsk, and the exhibition in Vitebsk, a significant number of exhibits (over thirty) was established in our country, Belarusian scientists and production workers, which will undoubtedly raise the prestige of Belarus as a country, where he actively carried out research in the most advanced and promising areas of modern science, which applies innovative technologies, and developing the production of high technology products.

 The initiator of the exhibition and the chairman of the organizing committee is Leonid Tanin - a major Belarusian scientist and founder of the artistic and protective holography in Belarus, Academician of International Engineering Academy, winner of several prestigious awards, including the award ONT "Pride of the nation," Chairman of the Board of Directors of JSC " Holographic industry, "Chairman of the Scientific Council of" The magic of light. "

We want to create in Vitebsk vivid, unforgettable, informative event that will long be remembered as the pupils and students and adult visitors.
