ON ART AND ITS JOURNEYS IN TIME AND SPACE

Specific dates are far from being the most important thing in history. It is rather the periods with their characteristic peculiarities in the thinking and behavior of large groups of individuals that „make“ history. The same applies for art as well. Both, when its creators and researchers comment certain events in the moment of their socialization, and when after some time they are reevaluated in terms of their significance for the historical processes in their entirety.

A number of events in Bulgaria and around the world that occurred at the end of the 80’s and the beginning of the 90’s of the 20th century give us reasons to talk about the last decade of the past century as an individualized period in which the trends in the thinking and everyday life of the artists have acquired a more completed image. At the same time the artistic situation gives us, more explicitly as compared to the past, an extensive material for differentiating terms and concepts among which the leading and especially actual issue is that of contemporary art. It is a matter that develops and changes rapidly mostly due to the fact that in the contemporary world globalization is the inevitable driving force.

Contemporary art and the museum is a subject that in our country at least is still to be discussed with the entire public and professional responsibility it deserves. This kind of art and its results presuppose the existence and development not only of museums in the classical sense, but of specific museum institutions for contemporary art.

With specific spaces - open and closed, with specific forms of expression and working with the audience. Contemporary art in this sense is a challenge for the museums whose associates can no longer be of the „office“ type, but rather historians and critics for whom the socio-cultural processes are not arranged only chronologically.

These arguments directed us towards the Export - Import Exhibition.

We realize how paradoxical it is for a Bulgarian museum to prepare such an exhibition, but in reality to be incapable of performing its own functions that start with the search for and purchase of works.

It is most prosaic and simple to say that the only reason for this is the lack of funds. But if they cannot be allotted by the State due to the overall economic stagnation, the museum on its own must find ways to operate efficiently, and not only exist at its traditional address.

We hope the exhibition will provoke the possibilities for creating a new collection at the fund of the Sofia Art Gallery - a collection of CONTEMPORARY BULGARIAN ART.

Maria Vassileva CONTEMPORARY BULGARIAN ART - BACk TO BULGARIA According to the commercial terminology, Export-Import means the export of one commodity and the import of another. In the context of the present edition this term changes its meaning and denotes our desire to „bring“, virtually and actually, the exported contemporary Bulgarian art back to its native country. Virtually - through the catalogue that preserves the works that have left the borders of the country. Actually - through the exhibition that tries to restore the map of Bulgarian presence abroad.

In the past ten years or so the country’s image has acquired the form of a water jug punctured in a number of places. No matter how long you keep it under running water it will never fill. In the same manner (and even not so poetically) various things flow out: brains, money, antiques. Art flows out as well but few people come to think about it. The society is strongly devoted to extending the „myth of the return“. This myth fills us with hopes. We hope that some day the young people (who are not so young anymore), who have left the country, will return. We hope the money stolen and exported by governments, credit millionaires and gangsters will also return. We hope painters are as highly esteemed here as they are abroad, i.e. they should „fit“ actually in the social pyramid and not just be present physically in the country.

To a large extent contemporary Bulgarian art is created for and in foreign countries. Although the edition includes a number of works presented in Bulgarian galleries, the actual evaluation and realization that this art receives comes from abroad where it is invited, shown, bought(!), where funds are invested in it and where articles are published about it. That is why the motivation to create art also comes from abroad. The most successful Bulgarian painter Nedko Solakov has not put up a single large exhibition in Bulgaria. None of his big installations has been shown in Bulgaria and no museum owns any of his works created in the past 10 years or more. With the exception of a few chamber exhibitions Nedko Solakov entirely thinks, creates and fits his works to the world outside Bulgaria.

It is true that the artistic movements in our country have provoked many of the works in the catalogue. The activity of some private galleries, non-governmental institutions and public associations, of separate curators and critics has created a favorable environment that provokes the ‘happening’ of art-events here as well. It is a fact that due to the efforts made by a bunch of people Here the activities of our painters were made possible There.

And yet, why does ‘here’ and ‘there’ still exist? Where does that crack dividing the world into two - we and all the rest - originate from? Why is the need of creating such an edition and exhibition so dramatic and not just a pleasant obligation of the art historians?

It may look strange but it is the painters, who constantly travel and exhibit their works and themselves throughout the world, who explain where they come from and what inspires them, that feel like foreigners in their own country. The interest shown in them by the State institutions is a minimum. Museums have no funds to buy their works and the majority of them even lack the desire to do so. Contemporary Bulgarian artists use the country mainly to sleep over in between two exhibitions abroad. It neither can feed them nor even thinks of encouraging them for the efforts they make.

It is for the first time that a museum institution, such as the Sofia Art Gallery, is trying to raise the issue about the place of contemporary artists. And to restore the disrupted bond in the scheme of artistic life - between the small private organizations (galleries, unions and others) and the State structures (museums, institutions and others).

The edition is not capable of including all painters and all works. It is an attempt at showing a process through a particular selection. The main idea is to demonstrate the enormous variety of events abroad in which Bulgarian painters have participated. From the biennales in Venice, Istanbul, Sao Paolo, kwandju, Tirana and Cetinje to the various international festivals, forums and activities, through all editions of the Manifesta so far to the Internet, the catalogue shows the diversity of the artistic production and its successful realization throughout the world.

The principle of selection is different. Works that are still sought on the international art market and that have been exhibited numerously abroad are shown. Such for example are: „Neo-Golgotha“ by Luchezar Boyadjiev (who is also the god-father of the present project), „A Life (Black & White)“ by Nedko Solakov, „Corrections“ by Rassim, „Transformation Always Takes Time and Energy“ by Pravdoliub Ivanov. Other authors are presented with their latest works that will be shown for the first time abroad: Nadezhda Oleg Lyahova, kiril Prashkov, Boris Misirkov and Georgi Bogdanov. „Territories“ by Pravdoliub Ivanov no longer exists but it has been included in the catalogue because of its symptomatic nature subordinated to the time when it was created. He and kalin Serapionov, Luchezar Boyadjiev and Lyuben kostov are included with projects covering a longer period of time with the aim of underlying the logics of the process. The net-art projects by Petko Durmana have the privilege of being seen everywhere and at all times. Fate is more benevolent to video-projects also - they are easier to carry and present. Among them, I would like to draw special attention to three young authors: Boriana Dragoeva, Daniela kostova and Ivan Moudov. The painters Tanya Abadjieva, Nina kovacheva, Valentin Stefanoff, Georgi Toushev and Huben Cherkelov already live abroad but have participated and still participate actively in international events and continue to represent Bulgaria.

The Export-Import project is an attempt at filling a „blank“ spot in our knowledge about the things happening outside Bulgaria (and inside it also). And at provoking the public opinion towards reconsidering its position about these painters who for more than 10 years have been Bulgaria’s invariable face before the world. All presented authors are alive and in sound health. And they have not yet given up their desire to create art. Isn’t it better to leave behind the „myth of the return“ instead of participating in its formation? And to give these painters what they deserve here and now. So that they would not feel as hotel guests in their own country.
