The 10th "Bulgaria – Turkey: A Bridge Between Cultures" exhibition is a anniversary show. It opened in Burgas on 28 October and has since moved to Japan, where it runs until 16 November.
Young artists from the Burgas school and representatives of Prof. Dr. Asen Zlatarov University are taking part. Their work is shown next to pieces by young talents from the Doryan Art studio in Izmir, Turkey.
The idea is free interpretation and rich colour, with a positive message of good neighbourliness, respect and shared culture.
The show comes from a long partnership between architect Yulia Krasovska and Cem Angelos Üstüner. Krasovska founded and heads the school at the Architecture and Art Foundation in Burgas. Üstüner is an international gallery owner who founded and owns the Pinelo Art Gallery in Istanbul. Burgas council helped organise the show.
In Tokyo, the exhibition is at Design Festa Gallery, an art space in the Jingumae area of Shibuya. Founded in 1998, the gallery supports independent artists from around the world.
