An internationally renowned Romanian actor will present marvelous marionettes to a broad audience of all ages. ZARVA intends to be a pilot-project developing multi-disciplinary Romanian Art Festivals in the European Regions. In the Maas-Rhein EUREGIO, or the “Dreiländereck” as it is called, Romanian culture finds open doors due to the interest of the public in multi-cultural traditions and its appreciation of real values in art, as well as its support to modern and contemporary artistic creations. |
