Bread Ladder, installation, 2014. Translation of a social paradigm.
Side A: //Bread ... symbol of ...well fed. //Waste ... symbol of ... taste? Wastefulness
is not happiness. With our new installation in Strasbourg, France we wish to
ask a question. What is wastefulness for you? Side B: The simplest things are
the most important. Great minds are occupied with survival thoughts instead of
research which will make the mankind thrive. A simple thing as bread can be a
great force. Don't waste it. //Consider//

“Rented air spaces” / documentation of the personal project from
Venice biennale, 2015 / For several decades Bulgarian cultural backgrounds have
been seeking to be part of the national presentations at the Venice Biennale. The
absence of Bulgarian pavilion the refusal of the political circles for
assistance provoke Robert Baramov to start Initiatives (2013 - '' Declaration
of War '') to draw the world's attention to the strange fact that Bulgaria
remains the only member state of the European Union without a national participation.
In 2015 his project ''Rented air spaces''
received massive approval by the curators of national pavilions, with whom
contact has been established. During the preview on May 6th, 7th, 8th the
artist managed negotiate with the teams of 17 pavilions lease agreements for
125 cm3 from the air spaces for their national presentations (among them
France, Germany, Switzerland, Great Britain, Romania, Brazil, Belgium, etc.
etc.), thus declares Bulgarian participation in the atmosphere of the Biennale
beyond the official program.

The fashion project "Opportunities" represents
five shirts on which original engravings are printed through various
traditional printing methods. The images are portraits, realistic-geometric
stills, compositions illustrating life during the years of socialism,
abstract-symbolic compositions. The contemporary society is more advanced in
technology and has an increased demand for art, for the involvement of art in
everyday life, for transforming it into useful objects. The images are placed
on the front side of the shirt in the form of color polyptic, high printing
collage and intaglio without overlapping.

MIKAEL KIHLMAN (Sweden) http://www.kihlman.net/index.php/en/
My pictures are my way of trying
to understand and orient myself in the world I live in. I am drawn to places
with history and traces of human life, such as cities, villages and historical
sites. The pictures are both a snapshot of the passing moment and a picture of
an event stretched out in time. The key is the light that uncovers the darkness
and gives a reflective and contemplative mode to the experience. The technique
dry point, an old copper graphical method suits the way I work very well and
gives itself a patina and a feeling that adds a to the finished work. I'm
basically a black and white graphic artist, one of many in a strong European
tradition. That's my main reference point and a base for all my work.

HANS LABAN (The Netherlands) http://hanslaban.nl/ The four works here represented
are part of the project We Do Have
Something In Common, a cross-border project, linking people from all over
the world. For this project I asked my family, friends, acquaintances and
Facebook users to send me photographs of their family and circle of friends. I
processed the images by combining photographs, omitting details and creating
new compositions in which people who do not know each other are suddenly
brought in contact. I translated the results into etchings and laser
engravings, making subtle use of the layers in the original imagery. I tried to
create a new sense of familiarity and mutual trust between complete strangers.
