« The artist is a repository of emotions coming from everywhere: from the sky, from the earth, from a piece of paper, from a spider's web.~Pablo Picasso »
IVAN DIMITROV, Italian painter and sculptor, was born in Bulgaria in 1958, but lives and works in Bologna, his adopted city. After numerous one-man shows, he began to take care of the presentation of his works to the public through thematic exhibitions-event ("Nativity", "Under the sign of the arcades", "Toys and memories") where the beauty of the exhibited works, combined with theatrical and scenographic, they also attract visitors from outside Bologna. Dimitrov confirms himself as an artist of national caliber. His notoriety is confirmed by several important exhibitions - including the collective exhibition in the Carolino-Augusteo Museum in Salzburg - and reaffirmed by the assignment, conferred on him in 2014 by the Municipality of Siena, to paint the Drappellone, the silk drape that constitutes the prize for the winning contrada of the Palio, painted over the years by artists of the caliber of Botero and Guttuso, Fiume and Mitoraj. His works are permanently exhibited at the Studio Santo Stefano art gallery in Bologna.
On the occasion of ARTEFIERA BOLOGNA 2022-ArtCityWhiteNight, Ivan Dimitrov created the exhibition "TOYS AND MEMORIES", where he presented an unpublished series of oil paintings dedicated to the theme of toys and childhood. The paintings in this collection, with bright, bright colors and full of light, inspired the series of limited edition FINE ART Giclée prints that we offer.
