Opening the event, rector Takir Balykbayev expressed his greetings to the participants of the youth seminar. The rector also stressed that the main participants of the project - future teachers - will be able to transfer their aesthetic and intercultural skills to their students in the future. Fashion as a universal cultural code, uniting the youth of different countries, promotes interpenetration of cultures, rapprochement of peoples and development of intercultural communications. On the first day of the seminar an excursion to the University was organized for the guests.

 

In a two-week seminar, participants will have the opportunity to jointly explore fashion as a social and aesthetic practice. Students from the three countries will work in mixed groups. The main issue that will be discussed at the seminar is related to how a typical local youth fashion manifests itself in a different culture. In addition, the workshop participants will be able to exchange what clothes they wear, in what situations and how cultural and national differences manifest themselves. Then they will work on drawings and collages and combine their ideas in collections of clothes.

 

International Youth Seminar «Everyday Culture in International Exchange: Youth Fashion - Globalized and Textile and Artistic» will continue until May 31, 2018.
