The French artist Bruno-Georges David is displaying 101 works in an exhibition, Horizons, in the Prof Teofan Sokerov Art Gallery in Lovech on Thursday.
The paintings date from different periods in his life, from his formative period in France, to the long period of travels around the world, especially in Eastern Europe after the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989. “The opening of this exhibition makes me particularly happy. It doesn’t show all the works I’ve created, but I tried to highlight different periods, techniques and installations, so as to draw the audience’s attention to modern life,” said David.
“We called the exhibition Horizons because seeing an exhibition always opens horizons, everyone learns something, cultivates their own culture,” he noted. In his view, it is important for the artist to surpass himself, and for the audience to be transported to different worlds and see different horizons.
“Bruno-Georges David’s art and language of expression has the power of an inexhaustible palette,” said Art Gallery Director Valentin Uzunov. “The encounter with his art is the modern look at the study of nature and the abstract. The horizon is open,” he added.
Bruno-Georges David was born in 1960 in Toulon. From a very early age he started painting and designing works based on recycled materials. At the age of 20 he began a career in advertising that took him to 50 countries, and in 2005 he returned to sculpture and painting. Now he lives in Sofia and regularly participates in exhibitions and international festivals.
The exhibition can be visited for the next two months.
