Description

Sofia Art Gallery displays museum exhibitions, curatorial projects, solo and group guest exhibitions of Bulgarian and foreign artists. It exhibits works from its collections in thematic, genre, style and historical exhibitions. Guest expositions are an important part of the gallery’s policy and its openness to the global processes in art. It organizes retrospective exhibitions of prominent Bulgarian artists and works actively with young artists and curators. The gallery is a partner to a number of Bulgarian and foreign institutions in the common pursuit towards development of the modern art scene. Today, the museum has four departments: painting, sculpture, graphics, contemporary art and photography, and the collection consists of more than 8,000 works of Bulgarian artists from the end of 19 th century to date. Part of its sculptures are arranged in the open in the City Garden.
