Krassimir Terziev

Krassimir Terziev is an interdisciplinary artist whose work spans a diversity of media, including video/film, photography, painting/drawing, and text, questioning the boundaries between reality and fiction, while exploring the manifold transitions and tensions between a globalised world, dominated by overwhelming multiplicity of symbolic imagery, and its material groundings in technological, physical and human ‘hardware’. 

Terziev holds a Ph.D. in Cultural Anthropology (Sofia University 2012) and an MA in Painting (National Academy of Arts Sofia 1997).

His work is part of the public collections of Centre Pompidou/MNAM, Paris;  Arteast 2000+ Collection, Moderna Galerija Ljubljana; Art Collection Telekom, Bonn; Sofia City Art Gallery, Sofia; Kunstsammlung Hypovereinsbank, Munich, among others.
