Baltā nakts by previous theme

nuit blanche f (plural nuits blanches)
1.sleepless night
2.white night

There are one night in a year when you shouldn't go sleep because the city in this night will be transformed by artists and remarkable events raising level of city's artistic glam in brand higher level. This all-night art thing Nuit Blanche brings out magical audio-visual substance combined with the stunning performances (music, dance, film, art) and  is so charming that can really remake usual places (museums, art galleries, cultural institutions, social spots etc.) into something noteworthy and best -  it's free of charge.

This year is the 6th year of Nuit Blanche, some cities use french phrase: White Nights, La Notte Bianca (Italian), La Noche en Blanco (Spanish), Noaptea alba (Romanian), Nata e Bardhe (Albanian), Baltā Nakts in Latvian, some of them use their own: Lejl Imdawwal ("Lit Night") in Maltese, Virada Cultural in São Paulo, Taiteiden yö ("Night of the arts") in Finland, and Kulturnatten ("Night of Culture") in Copenhagen. Historically the name and event came from Saint Petersburg, Russia, where they have white night in actual sense - during certain period before and after polar day (is considered 11 June-2 July) the Sun does not set until 10 p.m., and the twilight lasts almost all night.
It is also considered that next who took idea of such art festival was France. The Nuit Blanche concept came from Jean Blaise, who founded the Centre de recherche pour le développement culturel (Research Center for Cultural Development) in Nantes, France, in 1984. He set in motion this idea of art night  and the first city hosting this event was Paris, which has had its famous Nuit Blanche festival since 2002.

At the end I wanted to post a true nowadays jewel of rarement beaux (rarely beautiful) who caught my eye not only for b&w cinematography, but also for the clear, impressive and surrealistically powerful mood of old threadbare thing- love at first sight. Even  more striking it appears because of slow-mo effects and all that is made by Maya Mental Ray and 3ds Max Vray. Pretty good- huh?!:)
