THE EXHIBITION LANDSCAPE OR INTERIOR SPACE GATHERS THE ARTISTS SVETOZAR BENCHEV AND DIMITRE PECIĆ
The exhibition "Landscape or Inner Space" presents works by Prof. Dimitre Pecić, Dean of the Faculty of Fine Arts of the University of Arts - Belgrade and Prof. Svetozar Benchev, Dean of the Faculty of Fine Arts of the National Academy of Arts - Sofia. He is a full professor at the Faculty of Fine Arts, where he teaches drawing and painting. He has exhibited his works in more than 30 solo exhibitions and in more than 300 group exhibitions in Serbia and abroad. Svetozar Benchev works in the field of painting, drawing, ceramics and graphics. His artworks are owned by the Sofia Art Gallery, Art Gallery in Bоurgas, many private collections in Germany, France, Japan. The artworks of both authors treat the theme of the imaginary landscape in different ways – as a scene bathed in warm light, or a place of violent collisions between the elements.
The viewer is invited to enter a dreamy reality full of harmony, as well as to dive into the depths of the subconscious - a space full of legends, fantasies and premonitions.
The artists have participated in joint international events. They are now preparing a joint project with the State Cultural Institute to the Minister of Foreign Affairs for the first time, as a gesture of friendship, exchange of ideas and creation of a cultural space. The exhibition is part of the "Balkan Dialogues" program of the Institute.
The opening of the exhibition will take place on February 16, at 6 p.m., in the "Mission" gallery. The exhibition can be visited until March 16, 2023.
