Destination Bulgaria Foundation is pleased to inform you that it is going to
present the most important emerging Bulgarian artists in: Dublin - Usit Now - Aston Quay, O'Connel Bridge, from 08th till 13th of October 2001, and: Madrid - Usit Unlimited - Placa Callao 3, from 15th till 20th of October 2001.
The project is initiated and organized by Destination Bulgaria Foundation in
cooperation with Usit World, Soros Center for the Arts - Sofia, Bulgarian
Photographic Association and European Cultural Foundation.
Destination Bulgaria is a travelling gallery, uniting the works of the most
important emerging Bulgarian artists, working in the field of contemporary
visual arts: video, photography, digital print, slides, installations and sound.
Destination Bulgaria is an opportunity for young artists to honestly express
themselves, and a means to a self-definition. Destination Bulgaria is a way to
attract more attention to the place, where they live, and to the way they think,
by providing a new type of communication among the people - the visual arts.
Multimedia installations, TV screens, slide-projectors, monitors, cameras, night
window screenings and sounds presented in not-traditional galleries - the
offices of the student and youth travel agency "Usit". The Usit offices are
situated in major communicational, trade, and central places in European
capitals: Madrid / Usit Unlimited - Placa Callao 3, Dublin / Usit Now - Aston
Quay, O'Connel Bridge/, London /Usit Campus - 52 Grosvenor Gardens/, Brussels /
Usit Connections - Zuidstraat 19-21 Rue Du Midi/. A huge amount of potential
audience - young travelers pass every day trough these spacious locations. There
is no other more affordable and non-limited chance for the young artists to show
their art, and provoke their audience: the travelling young generation around
the world, in order to create sensibility and let young people accept world
diversity, the informational, cultural, spiritual, and social revelation,
exchange and identification.
Destination Bulgaria aims at showing the little known face of Bulgaria, as seen
through the eyes of artists of the young generation, through their visualized
messages towards the travelling people of their age, their way of living and
interests.
Destination Bulgaria is a territory in which the Bulgarian young artists will
find their own identity as national, European, and universal personalities.
Destination Bulgaria creates an integral document, a reflection of this
generation towards itself, towards the time and place, it lives in.
