European-mentality is directed more to the study of things and phenomena foreign-materialistic ... and matter-are the reflection and manifestation of the unseen spiritual world.

In the new exhibition hall of the Museum of Urban Sculpture From Petersburg today opened an exhibition "Habari Afrika".

The exhibition is organized within the Week of Germany in St. Petersburg. And all the submitted works of art are in private collections of former federal minister of Germany Reinhard Klimmt.
Head of the exhibition department of the museum Anna Lebedkova:
"In Swahili it means greeting. This exhibition project on the theme of Africa and of tolerance and passes it to the annual week of Germany in St. Petersburg. This project is unique in that for our country, for the city to become a special event this spring, because it is first presented a number of traditional African art. Exhibitions of African art in our city has not been a very long time. And all the other current exhibitions are devoted to this subject from the perspective of ethnography. At that time, as in all European cities in America, there are museums of contemporary African art. Because all artists 20 century, they somehow related to his work here in these origins, which they felt in African art. "
