Preparations for the Matei Brâncoveanu Awards Gala – 3rd edition, organised by the Alexandrion Foundation, have entered the final stretch. The jury has completed its difficult mission of selecting the candidates and is preparing for the big announcement, when it will reveal the names of the winners. The mystery will be revealed on Tuesday, 12 December, at the awards gala.
Who are the laureates of the Matei Brâncoveanu Awards
The Matei Brâncoveanu Awards are dedicated to young artists, figures of culture and scientists at the beginning of their careers. Proposals and nominations could be submitted until 4 December. Each proposal was accompanied by a short presentation of the reasons for the nomination.
The “Matei Brâncoveanu” Awards came about as a natural consequence of the Constantin Brâncoveanu Awards, dedicated to the seniors of culture and the sciences. The “Matei Brâncoveanu” Gala was “christened” after the youngest son of the martyr prince, who, together with his father and brothers, sacrificed himself for country and faith.
To date, in the two previous editions, the Alexandrion Foundation has presented 14 “Matei Brâncoveanu” awards in fields such as literature, visual arts, theatre, film, dance, classical music, pop/jazz music and socio-human sciences.
Where the Gala will be broadcast
This year, the Matei Brâncoveanu Awards Gala will be broadcast live on the website of the Alexandrion Foundation, fundatia-alexandrion.ro, on the website cotidianul.ro and on the Facebook page of Mr Nawaf Salameh, President of the Alexandrion Foundation.
