SIGMA VIG Supports Albanian Art and Cultural Heritage: A Tribute to the Master Gjon Mili
As part of its ongoing commitment to corporate social responsibility (CSR), SIGMA Vienna Insurance Group continues to support initiatives that promote art, culture, and education — essential values for the sustainable development of society. One of these initiatives is the collaboration with the National Youth Congress, within the framework of the festival dedicated to the great Albanian artist Gjon Mili — a multidimensional figure who left an indelible mark on the history of world photography.
Gjon Mili was a master and innovator in photography, a significant contributor to the social and cultural spheres in the United States and worldwide. In addition to being a musician who played the oboe, he had a deep connection with jazz music, which he documented masterfully during the Swing Era and the Modern Jazz period. Through his iconic photographs from the 1940s to the 1960s, Mili became one of the most renowned artists who united photography with music and film, leaving behind a rich cultural legacy.
Inspired by his work and message, SIGMA VIG aims to motivate the new generation of Albanian artists by highlighting the importance of creativity, passion, and dedication in building a brighter future. For SIGMA VIG, supporting art and culture is more than sponsorship — it is a commitment to social and cultural development, strengthening national identity, and promoting Albanian values on the international stage.
