Скулптура. Живопис. Графика. Рисунка. ... "Евгений Кузманов е художник на вдъхновеното съзерцание и вкаменената пластическа динамика. Той е творец с ясна, дълбоко промислена концепция за традиционното и модерното, за преходното и вечното. Той следва и разгръща неотклонно тази своя концепция през годините във все по-впечатляващи творби, които, убеден съм, ще надмогнат със своите естетически и художествени достойнства суетнята на боричкащите се псевдо пост модерни слави и ще емблематизират продуктивните търсения на съвременната българска художествена култура. Евгений Кузманов - поет на вдъхновеното пластическо ... |

"In a fast paced world with media focused on single, dramatic images there is the danger that extended documentary work like that of Babak Salari’s may be missed in the rush for the next great cover shot. Salari’s photographs, by contrast, require us to slow down and savour the moments he has rendered on film. Like any story, the best way to experience “Remembering the People of Afghanistan” is to be conscious of the telling and willing to let ourselves be affected by it.
Salari’s photos form a rich, complex story told in a soft voice. It is the story of a people recounted with empathy and respect. At times, it is ... |

Двуезично издание на български и английски език. ... "Беше преди двайсетина години... Стоях в галерия "Ромфея" и дълго гледах една пясъчна картина на неизвестен тогава за мене художник. В картината беше нарисувано чувство със синтетичния език на природата. Фактурата ѝ, композицията, вътрешният ритъм на цвета, втъкан в органичността на цялото, ми харесаха толкова, че не издържах, взех името на художника, скочих в колата и потеглих за Кюстендил. Исках да видя този художник, да го пипна, да вляза в ателието му и усетя атмосферата, да се докосна до предметите и картините му.
Така за първи път се срещнах ... |

"Irina Genova has greatly contributed to the wider knowledge about Bulgarian art: thanks to her exhibitions, studies, texts, catalogues, books and lectures all over Europe and America, Bulgarian art - particularly from the first half of the XX century - was put in the European, first of all Balkan context, and was compared with similar phenomena in the region. To achieve this, Genova has also studied all the movements and major personalities from neighboring countries. By doing so, she has accumulated great knowledge and experience, and I am happy to say that she is surely one of the most informed, influential and ... |

Двуезично издание на български и френски език. ... Книгата е резултат от дългогодишно изследване и проучване на творчеството на Жул Паскин в музеите, галериите, библиотеките и архивите на Париж и Ню Йорк в периода 2000 - 2005 г. Тя е първият опит изкуството му да не се разглежда като изолиран факт, а в контекста на художествените процеси от началото на XX век в Австрия, Германия, Франция и САЩ. Целта е изграждане на нов, пълноценен образ на художника чрез възстановяване на баланса в творческата му биография и осветляване на всички творчески периоди.

Двуезично издание на български и английски език. ... "The rich collection of almost one hundred portraits - weighty but serene, ambiguous but lucid, playful but sober is the most recent addition to a diverse documentary oeuvre that has taken Salari around the world several times, from Afghanistan to Mexico to the discreet networks of his fellow Iranian-Canadians. Both technically and artistically accomplished, as well as socially and psychologically astute, this series is finally being exhibited on the turf of its heroic and mysterious subjects."
