Constructing. Deconstructing.
My recent art endeavor is well summarized in this paragraph by the remarkable writer Thomas McGonigle:
"The Bulgarian Salon surprised me with its actual complexity. A long introduction to the ethereal fabric art hanging on nylon cord high over head... Then a reading by Michael Hyde... Then my three paragraphs from The Corpse Dream of N.Petkov...my reminding people that this might all please the old comrades back in Sofia as a pre 9 September celebration...an irony not lost on the older members of audience...the cheering on of Daniela Pondeva... Good Bulgarian food...two copies of Petkov autographed... Finally the startling conclusion as the fabric artist Liliya Sotirova ascended a ladder and systematically cut down her construction...the realization how temporary a moment such as this... Trusting it all to the memory of those who were here in Smithtown, NY."
My gratitude to event co-producer Daniela Pondeva, artist Daniela Kostova and curator Alan Lupiani is endless...................................! My deep respect to writers Michel Hyde and Thomas McGonigle.
