SOFIA SPIONAGE
September 24, 2009 to October 14, 2009
Sofia Spionage is a series of events that elaborate the visual existence of a city and capital through various “small stories”. The face of Sofia: The City in Pictures (Photography exhibition), The City in Words (Lecture), The City in Colours and Sounds (Film), and The City in Melodies (Musical performance).
Sofia Spionage shows the city as a stage for Bulgarian contemporary art and as a living microcosm. The superficial ‘shine’, brought about by systems geared towards globalisation stems from an urbanisation of thought and feelings. What is the future of this city after the period of transition between socialism and EU membership? How does its fate affect the visual and sensory consciousness of its inhabitants? What social factors govern the new aesthetic presentation of an Eastern European capital city?
Possible answers and food for debate on the question of the love/hate relationship between local artists and their city are raised in the private tales and artistic visions presented by curator Yanna Varbanova (Robert-Bosch grant 2009) in this exhibition.
