On the birthday of the most beloved poet of Russia Alexander Pushkin, the IV International Contest "Poetry of the Angels of Peace" was launched within the International Art Project "Angels of Peace".

The contest idea

The idea of the contest is to enrich the exhibition of paintings of the International Social Art Project "Angels of Peace" with poetic works written specifically for these paintings. Plaques with the best poems will be presented at museum sites along with paintings and will become a permanent part of the exhibition of the Art project "Angels of Peace".

Following the contest, a collection of finalists’ poems and paintings of the project will be issued in an electronic format. The best poems will be posted on the website in a permanent format www.365angels.com next to the paintings.

Results of three contests "Poetry of the Angels of Peace"

The first International Competition "Poetry of the Angels of Peace" started in October 2019. More than 770 poetic works from 27 countries were reviewed. Then two more successful competitions were held in 2020 and 2021.

But so far not all the paintings of the Art project "Angels of Peace" have been able to receive their poetic accompaniment. Some paintings inspired the authors to 25 poems, and some have not yet found any. Also, new paintings are constantly join the project. Therefore, we ask the participants of the fourth contest to pay special attention to the works without verses in the description. But inspiration, of course, will tell you which picture to pay attention to.

We wish you all a pleasant viewing and studying the stories of the paintings!

We will be glad to see the Light of your Soul! Inspiration!
