The paintings of contemporary Azerbaijani artists will be put for exhibition in Berlin on July 14-August 7, reports Interfax-Azerbaijan with reference to the press service for the Azerbaijani Ministry of Culture and Tourism.

"Main features of Azerbaijani art, which, undoubtedly, reflect national character are love for life, for beauty, hedonism of form and color, combination of reality and dreams of wonderful world. Medieval miniature, jewels, wall paintings of the 18-19th centuries and stone ornaments of ancient constructions is a bright evidence of it", noted the source from the Ministry.
