Traditionally, the New Year for the City Art Gallery in Varna begins with the unveiling of the treasures from its fund. The exhibition "Genres" presents nearly a hundred works by 65 Bulgarian artists from the first decades of the twentieth century to the present day.
Among the selected works one can see paintings by the great Varna representatives of marine art Mario Zhekov, Georgi Velchev and Hristo Kavarnaliev, the landscape painter and founder of the art gallery in the city, Yanko Marinov, as well as by many other masters of portrait, still life, figural composition and landscape.
According to Dorothea Pavlova, art critic and director of the gallery, the painting "Samovar" by Vera Nedkova and "Portrait of M. Mihailov" by one of the first women artists in Bulgarian art, Elena Karamihaylova, are also very interesting.
The exhibition in the City Art Gallery of Varna can be viewed until the end of February as all anti-epidemic measures must be observed.
