bulgarian-finnish art project
Bulgarian-Finnish art project includes 4 exhibitions in Bulgaria and 4 exhibitions in Finland. The project originates from 2006, when the artists met in Nelimarkka Museum in Alajarvi, Finland. The official launch of the project took place in the Finnish Paper Art Gallery in Kuusankoski, Finland, on the 12th of June 2008, at the opening of the first exhibition of the series. The same year the project was shown in The National Gallery in Sofia, Art Gallery - Dobrich and Cultural Center CAISA in Helsinki. The project evolves around the idea of European cultural dialogue and during 2009 was shown in The City Gallery of Seinajoki. Now it will be shown in Sredets Gallery of the Ministry of Culture and Lessedra Gallery. The last exhibition will be in City Gallery of Vaasa - Ostrobothnian Museum and this is the last event from the initial idea. The second phase of the project will be in 2011 with planers and exhibitions with a cultural and a social purpose, between Nellimarkka Museum, Alajarvi and Varna Regional Museum of History, who have long term experience in this direction. The complete project will be introduced in a catalog with the kind support of The Bulgarian Ministry of Culture and The Finnish Embassy.
