Dear friends,

We're excited to share all the Sarieva/Gallery art news for May and June with you.

In May, we're celebrating the finissage of our two current exhibitions in Plovdiv and Sofia, featuring the incredible works of Dimitar Genchev and Denitza Todorova. We extend our heartfelt thanks to the visitors, collectors, and the media for their continued interest and support!

As we move into June, our thematic focus shifts towards art collecting. For years, Sarieva/Gallery has been dedicated to nurturing a sustainable collecting environment in Bulgaria and emphasizing its significance for contemporary art.

On May 31st, we're thrilled to open an exhibition at Sarieva/Gallery in Plovdiv showcasing works from Simeon Markov's collection, along with related pieces curated in collaboration with the collector. 

Then, on June 14th, in collaboration with DOT Sofia Art Collection, we'll be unveiling a show featuring the talented young artist Desislava Terzieva at Sarieva/Gallery in Sofia.

Meanwhile, you can catch our gallery artists - Nedko Solakov, Luchezar Boyadjiev, Pravdoliub Ivanov, Artan Hajrullahu, and Kamen Stoyanov - exhibiting in various shows across Europe and Bulgaria.

For more details and updates, including recent press coverage, please visit our website. Feel free to reach out to us with any inquiries or requests regarding the artist or the artworks.
