Prior to the opening, Maximilian Letze, Managing Director of the Institute for Cultural Exchange, Germany, highlighted the exhibition, co-organized jointly by the Heydar Aliyev Center.

"Works of art were created on the basis of traditions using the most modern technologies and materials. The exhibition is not accidentally presented in Baku, its architecture harmoniously embodies antiquity and modern," he noted.

In general, samples of hyper-realistic sculpture can be easily confused with real people, real objects. The artists brilliantly depicted the human body, wrinkles, hair and other details.

The exhibition consists of five sections. Art lovers have a chance to enjoy monochrome sculptures, works reflecting different parts of the body and much more.
