Juliana Antonova-Murata presents her new book “Sate Sate, Japan” in Burgas
On October 5th at 6:30 PM, the career diplomat and author of five books, Juliana Antonova-Murata, will be a guest at the Burgas Library. Her latest book "Sate Sate, Japan" will be presented at the meeting. The latest work by Juliana Antonova-Murata immerses us in the unadulterated atmosphere of Japanese philosophy, seen through the eyes and heart of a Bulgarian woman who spent decades in the heart of its diplomatic and artistic elite. She served three terms as consul, cultural attaché, and minister plenipotentiary at our embassy in Tokyo, creating close contacts and ties with the cultural circles of the Land of the Rising Sun. Emblematic is her family friendship with the fashion genius Issey Miyake, who created a special series of clothing and a limited collection with a Bulgarian rose, personally inspired by her. The husband of Juliana Antonova-Murata, director of the prestigious international Daido Moriyama Foundation, organized the four landmark exhibitions in Japan of Hristo Javashev-Christo. In her meeting with Burgas readers, the author also includes a personal sentiment - in the distant 90 years, she organized and opened an exhibition at the Tokyo Daikayama Gallery of our eminent fellow citizen, the artist Stoyan Tsanev, which became a cultural event. Known among the cultural elite for her impeccable personal style, the author brings to Burgas not only her new book, but also vivid memories from the golden age of the world's art avant-garde. During the meeting at the Burgas Library, Juliana Antonova-Murata will share previously unpublished details from her correspondence with Christo and Issey Miyake, stories related to the notorious Japanese longevity, she will talk about the power of love and greetings, and about modern urban innovations in distant Japan, which can be introduced in our country. The next day, October 6th, the author will meet with her readers in Nessebar.
