黑料不打烊

Sarieva/Gallery is pleased to present Pravdoliub Ivanov's solo exhibition "The Truth About the Truth", which runs from 13 March to 10 May 2025 at the gallery's space in DOT Sofia. The exhibition includes side events and meetings with the artist.

With this exhibition, the gallery draws attention to one of the most significant and recognizable Bulgarian artists, with an international career and a strong social and political position - Pravdoliub Ivanov. The exhibition provides a key to understanding the artist's work and comes at the right time to present important but unseen works created in Bulgaria in different periods between 1998 and 2024. Although they have so far remained aloof from public debate, these artworks carry messages that resonate particularly strongly in the moment in which we live.

The exhibition is named after the work Truth About the Truth - a mirrored verbal absurdism pointing to the commonality between such disparate works, whose connection is the inversion of our notions of the obvious and a provocation to the stereotypes through which we often view the world and everyday life. The exhibition also focuses on a less visible aspect of art, the freedom of interpretation that art offers and the temporal fluidity of these interpretations.
