In June 2024, the Leiden-based
EST art foundation organized the exhibition
Export: Bulgaria 5 in Leiden, introducing works by Bulgarian artists to a new audience. This show marked a new phase in a long-lasting collaboration between EST and the Bulgarian art foundation
nonsofia.
Half a year later, nonsofia shows work of Dutch artists in the exhibition Focus: The Netherlands. The selected artists are closely related to the history of EST and nonsofia. Although EST follows the common denominator of concrete art, all artists employ their own set of rules in their work. The exhibition is supported by the National Culture Fund of Bulgaria.
