Burgas will pay tribute to a galaxy of deserving artists whose talent has left a lasting mark on Bulgarian fine arts, but who passed away in the last two decades.

On September 23, 2025, Tuesday, at 6:00 PM, a special exhibition dedicated to their memory will be opened in the gallery of the Artists_q_ Association – Burgas.

The event is highly anticipated among art connoisseurs in the city and the country. Among the names whose works will be presented are prominent figures in the Burgas, and also in the national art scene. These are names that have left a significant mark on the development of fine arts, and whose absence is an irreparable loss for Bulgarian culture.

The Collegium of Burgas artists categorically states that it will never forget their contribution and will preserve the memory of their talent. These masters have set lasting landmarks, paved the way, and left examples for generations of artists to come.

The initiators of the exhibition, Aneta Salabasheva – Kraeva and Sevina Traykova, have put a lot of effort into making this meaningful event happen.
