6:00 p.m., free admission
Museum of Humor and Satire, Gabrovo
On the last day of the retrospective exhibition “Boris Dimovski – 100 Years of Birth” we invite you to the presentation of the monograph “Boris Dimovski” – the work of Krasimir Iliev, curator of the exhibition.
The Museum of Humor and Satire and the author worked on the creation of this work with the conviction that the publication will contribute to the preservation and popularization of the artist’s creative heritage and his deep connection with Gabrovo – a city that in 1983 awarded him the title of “Honorary Citizen”.
The book contains 340 pages and over 600 images of caricatures, illustrations and photographs. It offers an in-depth look at the life, work and public role of Boris Dimovski – an artist whose name remains inextricably linked to our city.
Boris Dimovski is not only one of the most significant Bulgarian cartoonists, but also among the people who, together with Stefan Furtunov, are at the heart of transforming Gabrovo humor into a cultural symbol recognizable far beyond the borders of Bulgaria. His images and ideas continue to live on in the symbols of the city and in the history of the museum.
Come and meet the author Krasimir Iliev – the man who dedicated a year to return Boris Dimovski to his deserved place in the history of Bulgarian art.
