Preparations are being made for our next exhibition export: bulgaria 5, contemporary geometric abstraction from bulgaria, which will open on May 31st 2024. An exchange with nonsofia.
The exhibition, presenting a selection of works by nine Bulgarian artists, born between 1933 and 1980, gives the audience an opportunity to explore a completely new terra incognita. When it comes to geometric art, Bulgaria is one of the few European countries without an established tradition in this aesthetic field. Since 2010, however, nonsofia has been creating social awareness of it by organising symposia, exhibitions, open lectures, film screenings and workshops for children. Through these various activities, the association has gradually succeeded in consolidating a local art community and bringing Bulgaria onto the world map of geometric abstraction.
The exhibition is financially supported by the National Culture Fund of Bulgaria and includes works made over the past thirty years by the following artists: Boyan Chakarov, georgi dimitrov, Georgi Georgiev, Georgi Yanakiev, Ivan Shumanov, Kamen Kalev, Maria Chakarova, Petar Dochev and Viktor Vlaesku.
