Svilen Blazhev is one of Bulgaria’s favorite artists, who is known for his intense and saturated paintings. He is the artist who imposes abstraction in Bulgarian painting and mixes different materials to give life to his works. “Grafikart” gallery will show the public a different Svilen Blazhev, who creates graphics and drawings, but nevertheless does not betray himself and his love for the homeland.
Patriotism is a human trait that connects him to his birthplace, but for a Bulgarian it is part of his spirit, way of life and faith. The love for “everything Bulgarian and native” crosses the boundaries of ordinary praise of the Bulgarian language to reach new means of expression. Art has always been one of the high points for expressing patriotism, and Svilen Blazhev is a prominent representative of this love. Driven by his inner energy and infinite talent, he breaks the rules in Bulgarian art to go beyond elegance and flow into abstraction. Guided by Bulgarian traditions and customs, he creates art that touches not only through techniques and colors, but also tells about Bulgarians in an extraordinary way. We will find this story in “Graphics and Drawing” in the “Grafikart” gallery.
