New Piece of Art was a performance and a temporary installation for the duration of Sofia Contemporary 2013.
An abandoned billboard in the fields near Sofia Airport was over-painted by the artist with black colour. The action happened on the place and had a duration of about an hour. The artist was fighting with the size of the image and with the wind.
The second part of the project was an opening speech for the New Piece of Art. Here the artist behaved like if he was somebody from the municipality or from the festival and talked about the intention and the means of the work.
