Agim Zajmi has over 300 achievements in costume design. The main characteristics of Agim Zajmi&#8217;s scenography are: supporting the dramatic work, breaking down its philosophy, creating the necessary space for the actor&#8217;s play, which allows him to functionally organize the stage action; the use of metaphor, the special role of lighting and finally costume design. His scenographic language is poetic, which is why he is also called a stage poet. As a painter, Agim Zajmi showed an early tendency for the historical theme, which later characterized almost all of his creativity. His painting is as conventional as it is subject; symbolism and metaphor are embedded in it, the detail is found in such a way , to express a general thought, this is necessary for the work of figurative art. <em style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\">(In the photo: Agim Zajmi)<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"line-height: 115%;\"><strong><span lang=\"SQ\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: SQ;\">Text:<\/span><\/strong><span lang=\"SQ\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: SQ;\"> <em>Albanian encyclopedic dictionary &#8211; Vol. 3 <\/em>, Academy of Sciences of Albania, &#8220;Kristalina-KH&#8221;, Tirana, 2009, page 2971-2972.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"line-height: 115%;\"><strong><span lang=\"SQ\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: SQ;\">Photo: <\/span><\/strong><span lang=\"SQ\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: SQ;\">&copy; <\/span><span lang=\"EN\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kinematografia-shqiptare-sporti.com\/piktori-i-popullit-agim-zajmi-1936-2013\/\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif;\">https:\/\/www.kinematografia-shqiptare-sporti.com\/piktori-i-popullit-agim-zajmi-1936-2013\/<\/span><\/a><\/span><span lang=\"EN\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif;\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"line-height: 115%;\"><strong style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"><span lang=\"SQ\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: SQ;\">Graphic processing: <\/span><\/strong><span lang=\"SQ\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Calibri Light',sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: SQ;\">AHCF<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Tirana, Agim Zajmi, a scenographer, costume designer, painter, People&#8217;s Painter, and professor, passed away.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1980,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7286","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-vdekje"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/albheritage.wpadmin.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7286","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/albheritage.wpadmin.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/albheritage.wpadmin.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/albheritage.wpadmin.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/albheritage.wpadmin.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7286"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/albheritage.wpadmin.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7286\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10329,"href":"https:\/\/albheritage.wpadmin.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7286\/revisions\/10329"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/albheritage.wpadmin.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1980"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/albheritage.wpadmin.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7286"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/albheritage.wpadmin.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7286"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/albheritage.wpadmin.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7286"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
