YEARLY OVERVIEW – SARIEVA/GALLERY 2025
As 2025 comes to a close, we take a moment to look back reflecting on what has been built, shared, and learned in order to better prepare for what lies ahead. Throughout the year, Sarieva/Gallery continued to evolve as a multifaceted cultural platform for contemporary art, knowledge, and collecting. The gallery presented museum-quality exhibitions in Sofia and Plovdiv, supported the discovery of emerging voices, and deepened its international dialogue.
The program unfolded through exhibitions in the gallery and partner spaces, new institutional collaborations, experimental formats for social exchange, museum acquisitions, and significant museum exhibitions marking important milestones for the artists and communities the gallery works with. Alongside this, the gallery continued to support an open archive and database, providing broader access to the work and research of contemporary Bulgarian artists.
