Books by Dona Stoyanova
art originated in the 70s
XX century. When he appears, he represents
reaction against the trampling of
the natural impulses in art and
primordial human values.
Primitive artists perceive
the legacy of ancient times such as
a kind of portal to the spiritual.
The primitives come to remember them
the true meaning of the words creation,
vitality, art - words that lose
its meaning, becoming simple
in the slogans of the era. That's why the return
to the primitives is a return to the sources
of creativity. Where art is
there was always only one meaning -
to gather the conquered by the forces of chaos
decaying man.

Somewhere in the bottom of the corridor, a peeling door with an iron grating opened. Оn the doorstep appeared Mitko Grozdanov and welcomed us inside...
