During the 3rd festival BOFF, we will present to you first edition of making snow sculptures in Bovec town. You will find Call for Entry and Entry form, in menu_Events, and than_“Snow Sculptures“.

The rules are very simple and very attractive for the spectators: pressed (or artificial) snow from the surroundings will be put together in 2,4m x 2,4m x 2,4m blocks which will be located in different areas where the Bovec Film Festival with other events will take place. 10 selected teams will play on them with the wealth of their ideas. The result of the work should be the mirror of the selected sculpture ideas sent by artists.

Apart from the tools the sculptors can use only snow and water – which will be soon ice regarding the freezing winter temperatures. During the night the sculpture will be illuminated by some lights, but artist can also make use of candles.

The works have to be finished within 2 days, then they are going to be inspected and voted by the guests in the tourist resorts, the local residents and the giury.

The Snow Sculpture Festival will take place in the village of Bovec from 28th to 30th of December 2009. Hopefully the low winter temperatures and nice weather will contribute to give the sculptures a long life, so they can be admired till the first mild days even in the evenings as they are going to be illuminated.
