Photo exhibition 'Eternity of a Moment' opens at D'ART Gallery [PHOTOS]

On May 13, 2026, D'ART Gallery in Baku opened the solo photography exhibition 'The Eternity of a Moment' by fine art photographer Anna Ibrahimbayova. The show is the first installment of the gallery's new project 'Homes Warmed by Love and Art,' which explores how creative partnerships shape shared lives and artistic growth. The opening featured remarks by gallery founder Dilara Muzaffarli, an interview with the artist conducted by art producer Sofiko Dvalishvili, and tributes to Ibrahimbayova's late husband, Azerbaijani playwright Maksud Ibrahimbayov, from People's Artist Omar Eldarov and MP Ulviyya Hamzayeva. The exhibition runs through May 15.

The exhibition matters because it launches a new curatorial project that foregrounds the intersection of personal relationships and artistic practice, a theme often overlooked in mainstream art programming. By centering on Ibrahimbayova's photographic exploration of reflection as both physical phenomenon and metaphor for memory and emotion, the show also highlights the work of a veteran female photographer in Azerbaijan, while reinforcing D'ART Gallery's role in supporting local cultural dialogue and legacy preservation.
